Unbelievable Savings with Serverless Systems

The initial frustration with serverless systems often stems from an unexpected increase in costs for basic services. However, when companies transition to a serverless setup directly with the service provider, remarkable cost savings are achieved. Traditional deployments with containers can be inefficient due to underutilization, leading to high costs. By moving to serverless architectures, companies can witness substantial reductions in expenses, sometimes transitioning from several thousand dollars a month to as low as $70. Although some workloads may not be suitable for serverless systems, the general perception is skewed by successful cases of significant cost reductions through serverless technologies.
