My understanding is JAM stack refers to mostly the frontend, being a statically generated site, and talks to server via API, but doesn't dictate anything about your API server or server side jobs, etc. You can still run serverless/lambdas, or actual backend API servers, or whatever else you want to do.

I guess Redwood's model is a little more than JAM stack, since "Rails" for JS would imply it does a lot more than the JAM part, and that's what it looks like on the site.

We are stretching the definition of "JAMstack" here. But the primarily intended emphasis is not just React+API -- it's making structure+design choices that target serverless infrastructure out of the box. It's not perfect and we have a ways to go, but being able to deploy fully serverless is what RedwoodJS is all about.
