" summary

Company runs entirely on serverless, claiming 6.5M Lambda invocations/day and $550/month compute for 650k customers, built originally as a serverless monolith then refactored incrementally to serverless monolith → microservices. Production uses AWS plus Firebase and Google Vision, DynamoDB autoscaling and SQS→Lambda integration, deploys via CloudFormation/SAM local, and rarely raises concurrent-execution limits. The pitch: managed-service APIs make multi-cloud wiring easier and developer experience and tooling (security, monitoring, deployment startups) drive adoption.
