Is there really that much hype? I feel like I haven't heard that much. Serverless isn't even really much of a new thing, there have always been providers that hid the underlying aspects of running a web site on the internet. I think for most people they just don't want to have to worry about patching a machine, rolling logs, watching disk space, etc, if they don't need to.

We tried to go down the serverless path, but it took WAY more dev resources than using ec2.

It is not at all obvious what it just can't be used for. In our case, Julia.
