This allows teams to sidestep much of the cost and time associated with managing hardware, platforms, and operating systems on-premises, while also gaining the flexibility to scale rapidly and efficiently. In a serverless architecture, applications are distributed to meet demand and scale requirements efficiently.

Application scalability is the potential of an application to grow in time, being able to efficiently handle more and more requests per minute (RPM). It’s not just a simple tweak you can turn on/off; it’s a long-time process that touches almost every single item in your stack, including both hardware and software sides of the system.

Even with cloud-based foundation models like GPT-4, which eliminate the need to develop your own model or provide your own infrastructure, fine-tuning a model for any particular use case is still a major undertaking.

In the simplest case, you have a growing workload, and you optimize it to run more efficiently so that you don’t need to buy or rent additional hardware, so your carbon footprint stays the same, but the carbon per transaction or operation is going down.
