Serverless just means that your infrastructure is programmatically defined through configuration files rather than manually stiched together, so (in theory) the underlying silicon is abstracted away in a similar fashion to the x86 ASM that your code gets compiled to. In practice that isn't always the case (horror stories of rogue $xx,xxx/day lambda functions) but from my understanding that's the serverless end game.
