It allows users to access and use shared computing resources, such as servers, storage, and applications, on demand and without the need to manage the underlying infrastructure. This means that users only pay for the computing resources they actually use, rather than having to invest in expensive hardware and software upfront.

Cloud Infrastructure Services -- An analysis of potentially anti-competitive practices by Professor Frédéric Jenny. What some consider infrastructure or platform is just another cloud service. What it means to be cloud-native has gone through several evolutions: VM to container to serverless. Let's walk through them.

Let's talk about the elephant in the room; Serverless doesn't really mean that there are no Software or Hardware servers. Serverless Computing is also known as FaaS (Function as a Service). Serverless is currently a hot topic in many modern architectural patterns. Serverless systems are still in their infancy.
