- acloudguru.com: Containers vs serverless: Which is right for you? Serverless is one of the hottest new cloud trends. However, I have found it leads to more harm than good in the long run. While I understand some of the problems listed above are not unique to serverless, they are much more prolific; leading engineers to spend most of their time with YAML configuration or troubleshooting function execution rather than crafting business logic. What I find odd is the lack of complaints from the community. If I’m alone in my assessment, I’d love to hear from you in the comments below. I’ve spent a significant amount of time over the last few years working to undo my own serverless mistakes as well as those made by other developers. Maybe I’m the one who has been brainwashed? Time will tell.

Hi aspiring cloud professional, my name is Adam and I need you to listen to me.
— Adam Elmore (@aeduhm) September 29, 2021
First, I make a zillion-ish dollars per year freelancing and I stand to gain nothing from your attention.
I’m writing to you because it occurs to me that things I think are obvious probably aren’t.
When building message/event based solutions you may want to take a message or event and split it into many different ones.
— David Boyne 🚀 (@boyney123) February 27, 2023
We can use this to split large messages/events into smaller ones for downstream consumers.
