Serverless: slower and more expensive
Server less seems very case specific. Either it works for your model or it doesn't. And if it doesn't then its a lost cause given the inflexible nature of the limitations. Its not tweak able in most cases<p>This just reads like a casestudy where it was not the right answer.<p>I also think people giving others flak for "abusing" the free tiers are missing the point. The free allocation is there to be used. Sure don't go create 5x fake accounts but to me structuring your app to stay within limits is a very reasonable proposition<p>Its not like the cloud provider is getting screwed - they want as much mindshare to their ecosystem as they can get.And someone learning and deploying their tech gets them quite far on that
