Yeah seems overkill. Back in the day (1990s) you'd use a serverless script in the "Personal HomePage" language.

Pardon, how do you do a serverless php page?
Well, shared hosts let you upload the PHP file via FTP (or secure FTP if lucky!) to ~/public_html and serve it without administering a server.
That’s still running on a server.

Serverless is just a server that has been abstracted away enough by magical APIs to let you (partially) ignore the underlying physical machines.
