I'm generally a proponent of DIY, this doesn't make sense. When an org needs to scale, it makes sense to cultivate skill in the underlying infrastructure. On day 1, serverless makes a lot of sense because it encourages development patterns that eventually will scale nicely.


Placing stateless web servers on simple VPS instances with load balancers in front doesn't scale nicely? Or perhaps I'm misunderstanding the parent.


Serverless does force you to think for higher concurrency than bigger server instances which is worth something.
