How can something be serverless if it habdles http requests? Does it just process requests and never serves responses, or is it just a hip-sounding misnomer?



Long story short, there's a server somewhere, but most of the configuration is abstracted away. Instead of thinking of servers, they want you to think about endpoints (which they manage somewhat efficiently for you).
