Has anyone considered whether it’s feasible to turn it into a bunch of Lambda functions with a serverless database behind it?
... you just did. I'm not sure if "patches welcome" is appropriate for what looks to me to be a pretty radical idea, but someone could give it a try. :-)
I don't think anybody in Mailman core has thought about it though. I don't really see the advantage for most sites. Hosts, especially VMs, are cheap, and unless you're running the lists for a major university or the like, lowest tier hosts will do.
As for "serverless databases", that depends on whether Django and SQLAlchemy support them. Mailman has a lot of code invested in those ORMs.
