Tämä oli hyvä yhteenveto palvelimettoman arkkitehtuurin eduista ja haasteista:

"To start with, PaaS and Docker have a major headstart that serverless architecture lacks: you can lift-and-shift an existing system into it without substantially rearchitecting. The many quirks and tradeoffs in serverless offerings mean that assumptions you made in your traditionally-architected system may not be possible to guarantee with serverless.

However, if you’re starting from scratch, or already rearchitecting anyway, you can use serverless architecture to drop a huge amount of overhead from your development and operations. It’s hard to overstate this benefit. With a fully serverless system, with computation entirely through FaaS and all other infrastructure in SaaS, you essentially only write business logic."
