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…
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…
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…
The Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) execution model increases developer productivity by removing operational concerns such as managing hardware or software runtimes. Developers, however, still need to partition their applications into FaaS…
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…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is an event-driven serverless cloud computing model in which small, stateless functions are invoked in response to events, such as HTTP requests, new database entries, or messages. Current FaaS platform assume…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) enables developers to run serverless applications without managing operational tasks. In current FaaS platforms, both synchronous and asynchronous calls are executed immediately. In this paper, we present…
In Function as a Service (FaaS), a serverless computing variant, customers deploy functions instead of complete virtual machines or Linux containers. It is the cloud provider who maintains the runtime environment for these functions. FaaS…
Function as a Service (FaaS) has been gaining popularity as a way to deploy computations to serverless backends in the cloud. This paradigm shifts the complexity of allocating and provisioning resources to the cloud provider, which has to…
Groundhog is a novel design for a smart contract execution engine based around concurrent execution of blocks of transactions. Unlike prior work, transactions within a block in Groundhog are not ordered relative to one another. Instead, our…
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 Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a popular cloud paradigm to quickly and cheaply implement complex applications. Because the function instances cloud providers start to execute user code run on shared infrastructure, 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…
Serverless computing is an excellent fit for big data processing because it can scale quickly and cheaply to thousands of parallel functions. Existing serverless platforms isolate functions in ephemeral, stateless containers, preventing…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a promising edge computing execution model but requires secure sandboxing mechanisms to isolate workloads from multiple tenants on constrained infrastructure. Although Docker containers are lightweight and…
With the advent of AWS Lambda in 2014, Serverless Computing, particularly Function-as-a-Service (FaaS), has witnessed growing popularity across various application domains. FaaS enables an application to be decomposed into fine-grained…
In FaaS, users invoke remote functions, which encapsulate service(s). These functions typically need to remotely access a persistent state via external services: this makes the paradigm less attractive in edge systems, especially for IoT…
Fog computing can support IoT services with fast response time and low bandwidth usage by moving computation from the cloud to edge devices. However, existing fog computing frameworks have limited flexibility to support dynamic service…
Function-as-a-Service is a novel type of cloud service used for creating distributed applications and utilizing computing resources. Application developer supplies source code of cloud functions, which are small applications or application…
The serverless and functions as a service (FaaS) paradigms are currently trending among cloud providers and are now increasingly being applied to the network edge, and to the Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The benefits include reduced…
