It can feel like an endless sprint to keep up but being aware of at least the popular technology can really pay off. It seems like serverless is also getting more popular, I would love to see more open-source serverless first frameworks like Baseline github.com/Baseline-JS/core that provide services already stitched together in a holistic way
@smitterhane FaaS is a key component of serverless, often serving as the compute layer in serverless applications. However, serverless extends beyond FaaS to include other managed services like databases (e.g., DynamoDB), authentication (e.g., AWS Cognito), and storage (e.g., S3). These services share common characteristics: you only pay for what you use, they scale automatically with demand, and the infrastructure is managed by the cloud provider, allowing developers to focus entirely on their application logic. Baseline stitches these together so there are no bottlenecks and you can make the most of serverless. Having an application that is completely serverless can reduce a lot of overhead and make developing much faster, cost efficient and scalable. We had a whole SaaS platform that had staging/production, admin portal, customer portal, marketing site and a bunch of integrations only costing us $0.52 a month to host.

Is serverless another word for Function As A Service(FAAS)?
