  • What is "SST" in this context? Is it this thing? https://sst.dev/

    I'm having trouble understanding where PHP fits into this scenario. If your cloud backend is in PHP, can't you just host that anywhere, separate from your frontends? Where does the serverless come in? And which did you use? (There are so many out there now, from AWS Lambda to Cloudflare to Fastly, etc.)

    If you're not limited to AWS, Google's Cloud Run lets you containerize a PHP app and auto-scale it up and back down to zero in bursts, for example. It's not really serverless, just an auto-scaling VM that goes up and down as needed.
