I still don't see where the savings of time come in. What you lose in "ops" you gain in configuration and assuming you don't have eidetic memory that has a time cost.
What configuration? I use AppEngine for a personal project I'm developing, and besides the app.yml file, which is about five lines long, I don't configure a thing. In fact, I don't even have to stand up databases to use one: I just make the API call to store the data and it's handled for me. Literally zero configuration.
That's in the standard environment. Even in the Flexible Environment the configuration is equally nonexistent.
Give AppEngine a try: I honestly believe you'll consider it the true definition of Serverless.
