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…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) has become an increasingly popular way for users to deploy their applications without the burden of managing the underlying infrastructure. However, existing FaaS platforms rely on remote storage to maintain…
In Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) serverless, large applications are split into short-lived stateless functions. Deploying functions is mutually profitable: users need not be concerned with resource management, while providers can keep their…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a popular cloud computing model in which applications are implemented as work flows of multiple independent functions. While cloud providers usually offer composition services for such workflows, they do not…
Function as a Service (FaaS) permits cloud customers to deploy to cloud individual functions, in contrast to complete virtual machines or Linux containers. All major cloud providers offer FaaS products (Amazon Lambda, Google Cloud…
Serverless computing is a widely adopted cloud execution model composed of Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) and Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) offerings. The increased level of abstraction makes vendor lock-in inherent to serverless computing,…
Function as a Service (FaaS) paradigm is becoming widespread and is envisioned as the next generation of cloud systems that mitigate the burden for programmers and cloud solution architects. However, the FaaS abstraction only makes the…
The function-as-a-service (FaaS) paradigm is envisioned as the next generation of cloud computing systems that mitigate the burden for cloud-native application developers by abstracting them from cloud resource management. However, it does…
Current Serverless abstractions (e.g., FaaS) poorly support non-functional requirements (e.g., QoS and constraints), are provider-dependent, and are incompatible with other cloud abstractions (e.g., databases). As a result, application…
Serverless computing has seen a myriad of work exploring its potential. Some systems tackle Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) properties on automatic elasticity and scale to run highly-parallel computing jobs. However, they focus on specific…
While the first generation of cloud computing systems mitigated the job of system administrators, the next generation of cloud computing systems is emerging to mitigate the burden for cloud developers -- facilitating the development of…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a recent and already very popular paradigm in cloud computing. The function provider need only specify the function to be run, usually in a high-level language like JavaScript, and the service provider…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) struggles with burst-parallel jobs due to needing multiple independent invocations to start a job. The lack of a group invocation primitive complicates application development and overlooks crucial aspects like…
Since the appearance of Amazon Lambda in 2014, all major cloud providers have embraced the Function as a Service (FaaS) model, because of its enormous potential for a wide variety of applications. As expected (and also desired), the…
Developing accurate and extendable performance models for serverless platforms, aka Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms, is a very challenging task. Also, implementation and experimentation on real serverless platforms is both costly and…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is at the core of serverless computing, enabling developers to easily deploy applications without managing computing resources. With an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) approach, frameworks like the Serverless…
Meeting the requirements of future services with time sensitivity and handling sudden load spikes of the services in Fog computing environments are challenging tasks due to the lack of publicly available Fog nodes and their characteristics.…
Serverless computing has emerged as a very popular cloud technology, together with its companion Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) programming model enabling invocations of stateless functions from clients. An evolution of serverless is now…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) allows to directly submit function code to a cloud provider without the burden of managing infrastructure resources. Each cloud provider establishes execution time limits to their FaaS offerings, which impose…
We present FunLess, a Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform tailored for the private edge cloud system. FunLess responds to recent trends that advocate for extending the coverage of serverless computing to private edge cloud systems and…
