What is Serverless?
In a serverless, you have to only pay for what you are using.
Serverless doesn't mean, there is no server. It means you don't have to manage servers for running your code/application/workload.
So, the question arrives, then who does manage it? Does it save cost? Does it Scale in real time?
The answer is, On Behalf Cloud Provider Manages the infrastructure- server availability, instance configuration(e.g.memoery/CPU), and Scales the instances as per requirement
