Development productivity in a post serverless world

on YouTube ↗16m

" summary

A power cut breaks a lone auth server called Argo, it gets unplugged, ridden home on a scooter and plugged back in so the service immediately restores — a concrete example that hardware matters. The claim is that traditional infrastructure as code (separate YAML, CloudFormation/Terraform) won’t win the next 5–10 years; instead platform as code unifies infra and app in a single CI/CD pipeline and single language. Docker, Kubernetes and Helm drove earlier convergence; serverless framework and Lambda still keep infra and function code split.
