Why wouldn’t serverless technologies be relevant to the self hosted community?
Comment on Serverless Is An Architectural Handicap (And I'm Tired of Pretending it Isn't)

This is just an ad for “Viduli, The AI-native cloud platform”
The discussion itself is off-topic for this community anyway. Who would even think about using “serverless” for self-hosting?
- EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 day ago- Goodeye8@piefed.social 21 hours ago- The discussion is off topic for the same reason web development software patterns or the benefits of choosing one language over another aren’t really relevant to the selfhosting community. Because most self-hosters don’t develop the software they host, they set up existing software. Serverless technology itself might be relevant, if there was a project using that, but how the architectural decision impacts software development is not really relevant to self-hosters. - EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 16 hours ago- On the contrary, lots of us write our own scripts and software. And when considering how to self host that software, serverless is a perfectly valid choice. - Just because many self hosters are hobbyists who only use things off the shelf doesn’t make self hosting infrastructure outside the scope of… selfhosting lol - Goodeye8@piefed.social 11 hours ago- I’ll rephrase it more clearly then. Selfhosting focuses on the hosting aspect of software. !programming@programming.dev focuses on the development aspect of software. This article talks about the architectural decision made during development. It doesn’t talk about how to host serverless. It doesn’t even talk about why you wouldn’t want to selfhost serverless. It talks about bad software patterns the come with serverless. It also talks about the cost of running those things but even that is geared more towards enterprise level devops people. - It might be an interesting read from the software developer perspective but it’s not interesting from the selfhoster perspective, because the article has nothing to do with selfhosting. 
 
 
- RedirectedPotato@lemmy.world 1 day ago- I can’t think of a single open source / self hostable app that needed, or even had an option to deploy as a function. I have seen FaaS projects though, but they deploy to docker.

I use serverless via knative in my homelab…
