Cloud Cost Optimization: Serverless or Dedicated in 2025?
September 11, 2025
1 minute to read
The choice between a serverless architecture and dedicated servers is not just a technical decision but a strategic step in financial optimization.
In 2025, serverless is attractive for its scalability and pay-as-you-go model, which is almost ideal for projects with variable workloads or services with irregular traffic. Instead of configuring servers, this model allows you to immediately focus on the product and feature development.
However, dedicated servers remain the leader where predictable workloads, high performance, and stability are required. For complex computations or long-term tasks, the pricing of dedicated servers looks far more appealing.
So what should you choose?
🔹 If you want a quick start and flexibility — choose serverless.
🔹 If you have stable workloads and an optimized architecture — dedicated becomes the economically reasonable choice.
A successful cloud strategy is a balance between technical needs, budget, and business goals. And sometimes, a hybrid model may be the best choice for your infrastructure.
