Serverless vs. Traditional Architectures

Serverless represents a fundamental evolution from traditional models:

  • Traditional Servers (IaaS): You manage virtual machines, operating systems, and runtime environments. You pay for the server whenever it's on, regardless of use.‍
  • Containers (CaaS): You package your application into containers and manage the orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes). The cluster nodes run continuously, incurring costs.‍
  • Serverless (FaaS/CaaS): You provide only the code. The platform manages execution at a granular level. Resources exist only during execution, leading to optimal cost and efficiency.
