I do think something like serverless functions is the better abstraction, but there is no open format I am aware of that you can use to bring these across providers (other than arguably serverless I suppose), and generally there has been little support/interest for long/infinite running serverless functions, making some applications problematic.

Disclaimer: I work for DBOS. But the reason I took the job is because I think we are solving a lot of the problems that make people choose containers over serverless.

We have an open source library called Transact[0] that you can run anywhere, including locally, and get durable serverless with state (and even some observability). Then you can deploy it to our cloud[1] and get reliability, scalability, more observability, and a time travel debugger.
