Do you manually manage the infrastructure (keeping instances hot/cold, updates, scaling, etc.)? If so that's a lot to consider.

Containers are generally managed similar to serverless.

AWS drains connections and workloads on container deployments. I set the same rules to scale either.

Containers offer flexibility that serverless doesn't for implementing hot/cold, blue/green, n running with n+1, etc.

So, additional flexibility with the same considerstions.

Lambda support blue/green and all sorts of flexible stuff:

    aws lambda update-alias --function-name myfunction --name myalias --routing-config '{"AdditionalVersionWeights" : {"2" : 0.05} }'
