Serverless == Mainframe-centric !

ciao Alex,
many good points here, thanks for your notes.

But I admit I’m perplex on the modern era of “serverless”, that I feel a bit as an hypocrisy.

For me serverless, in terms or an inter-computing architectural paradigm, really means “without a servers”, all in all serverless is in my mind, just a synonymous of “distributed computing” in a P2P desirable world :-)

Indeed we use now the term “serverless” just to point out the opposite model that I call instead “mainframe/ server-centric” ;-)

Again about big data and Saas for machine learning… I wrote my concerns many times, see here about crowdsourcing for NLProc ML (in chatbots Saas realms):
