I think you're missing the point I wanted to make.
We're not supposed to compare the two technologies point-for-point, but instead, use them where they excel in their own category. Please don't position yourself in the container tribe or serverless camp. Open your mind to the opportunity, and advantage, both can provide.
Based on your use-case, user traffic, and throughput intensity, both can be the better choice. It's up to you to make that choice.

I trust his judgment. 😊
Thanks for reading, I hope you stick around and read one of my next articles. Cheers!
Exactly. E.g. In IoT doing Machine Learning at the Edge (as in Edge Computing) oftentimes Kubernetes or containers in general aren't possible. Serverless is the only lightweight code that can actually run there. Of course increasingly powerful processors & boards are being developed so it may not be an issue to select either in a year from now.
