builds a server. calls it serverless.

I mean yes, but also the idea is that the user of serverless doesn't have to configure, provision, maintain, etc. any server. You as the user just provide the code, and their platform handles running it on a server when needed.

so, managed hosting.

no, I get it, lambda functions as a service. neat stuff, sure. great idea to downsize your ec2 instances and whatnot. I just take issue with the marketing of it, I guess.

kinda hard to have a service without a server though. especially when a server (server.coolguy.fun) is a physical device but also the code running on the device (fastcgi, nginx, databases, etc).

serverless servers serving services. brought to you by aws.
