FaaS … functions as a service
REST programming (Rails and PHP) is stateless or it doesn't work. Pure means no side effects and at some point you need to record things.

REST programming isn’t a thing, REST is a way to transmit data that describes where you can move from it; FP stateless is pure
-
HTTP verbs imply idempotence, etc. If you go with the grain on HTTP you have a shared-nothing architecture.
-
sure, but that’s level 2 on RMM, level 3 is hypermedia which is a pre-req of REST… without Link header you don’t have REST
-
devs took this into weird areas with json-ld, etc., where it’s baked into the data by convention, ignoring the protocol entirely
-
so to get back on track, of course any function in any lang might be pure, but imo FaaS is FP over the wire :)
-
To an FP adherent, everything is the second coming of FP. I don't think "FP over the wire" is how most ppl use serverless ;)

no kidding
