No, both because serverless will not replace all other and because I suspect serverless applications past a certain size will require such roles (doing monitoring, debugging, security, ...) even if the precise skill-set shifts.
No, you'll need the same rules, but doing slightly different things. Or someone else will have to take them over. Either way, you'll have N-persons-worth of pure ops work - someone will have to do it.
