Here’s a typical, if nasty, outage: The network goes down for a few seconds. Even though you’ve set up your application code using a serverless service to handle bursty traffic from clients, this traffic spike is bigger than usual.

I support blameless postmortems, but in these situations, I tend to ask myself whether this is my fault or a consequence of our stack.

Kubernetes knows what it is and it doesn’t care if you think it’s complicated.

Serverless is so close to handling all production DevOps work, what if it went the last mile?
