⏰ What time is it? Time for a #Mythbusters thread -- #Serverless edition!

Agreed, the term is sub-par. But hear me out, the architecture is not. Let's talk about a few common misconceptions about Serverless!
1⃣ "Serverless means no servers"

There *are* servers involved, but it's not on you to run and operate them. Instead, the serverless provider is managing the platform, scaling things up (and down) as needed. Less things to take care of, billed per-use.

Myth: BUSTED!
2⃣ "Serverless is cheaper"

Pay-per-use makes low/medium-volume workloads really cheap. But pricing is complex: no. of requests, assigned RAM/CPU, API gateways, traffic etc. Depending on your workload (e.g. high, sustained), other options like VMs are better.

Myth: Kinda BUSTED!
