The serverless computing model has evolved as one of the key solutions in the cloud for fast autoscaling and capacity planning. In edge computing environments, however, the serverless model is challenged by the system heterogeneity and…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is one form of the serverless cloud computing paradigm and is defined through FaaS platforms (e.g., AWS Lambda) executing event-triggered code snippets (i.e., functions). Many studies that empirically evaluate…
The proliferation of edge devices and the rapid growth of IoT data have called forth the edge computing paradigm. Function-as-a-service (FaaS) is a promising computing paradigm to realize edge computing. This paper explores the feasibility…
The serverless cloud computing model offers a framework where the service provider abstracts the underlying infrastructure management from developers. In this serverless model, FaaS provides an event-driven, function-oriented computing…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a cloud service model enabling developers to offload event-driven executable snippets of code. The execution and management of such functions becomes a FaaS provider's responsibility, hereby included their…
Serverless computing has emerged as a prominent paradigm, with a significant adoption rate among cloud customers. While this model offers advantages such as abstraction from the deployment and resource scheduling, it also poses limitations…
