what is serverless api? is it local?
No, it’s an API where on requests a server is started up to run your code.
You don’t run the server, someone else does — hence “serverless”.
The moment I realized AWS Lambda is a scam was the moment I learned that you have to check if you need to clean up your runtime environment at function start, because it will sometimes reuse the same server between runs, because it’s a server that they don’t even bother to have behave as if it isn’t.
Hurray, “stateless function calling” now with 100% more state!
The concept is that you basically upload code directly to the hosting service, then set up an endpoint that points to the code, and magically run it. “Serverless” because you never deal with server setup/config/load balancing/etc… And can pretend that your code runs on nothing if you so please.
Is my delivered pizza flourless, because i don’t deal with the flour and just get the pizza?
I guess it’s a bakeless pizza.
Just like so many “no code” solutions that only become truly useful once I figure out how to expose and modify the obfuscated code. But I don’t talk about Microsoft anymore.
Had an argument with my architect about this once. He said its because serverless functions can be run on the edge as well, making them totally portable. I said that already exists and it’s called fucking executables.

Of course it’s called serverless because there are less servers! /s
