We consider elastic resource provisioning in the cloud, focusing on in-memory key-value stores used as caches. Our goal is to dynamically scale resources to the traffic pattern minimizing the overall cost, which includes not only the…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms and "serverless" cloud computing are becoming increasingly popular. Current FaaS offerings are targeted at stateless functions that do minimal I/O and communication. We argue that the benefits of…
Serverless computing has emerged as a compelling new paradigm of cloud computing models in recent years. It promises the user services at large scale and low cost while eliminating the need for infrastructure management. On cloud provider…
Serverless Computing is a computing paradigm that provides efficient infrastructure management and elastic scalability. Serverless functions scale up or down based on demand, which means that functions are not directly addressable and rely…
Serverless computing paradigm has become more ingrained into the industry, as it offers a cheap alternative for application development and deployment. This new paradigm has also created new kinds of problems for the developer, who needs to…
Serverless computing has emerged as a new paradigm for running short-lived computations in the cloud. Due to its ability to handle IoT workloads, there has been considerable interest in running serverless functions at the edge. However, the…
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,…
Elasticity is a key property of cloud computing. However, elasticity is offered today at the granularity of virtual machines, which take tens of seconds to start. This is insufficient to react to load spikes and sudden failures in latency…
Serverless query processing has become increasingly popular due to its auto-scaling, high elasticity, and pay-as-you-go pricing. It allows cloud data warehouse (or lakehouse) users to focus on data analysis without the burden of managing…
Serverless computing is an approach to cloud computing that allows programmers to run serverless functions in response to external events. Serverless functions are priced at sub-second granularity, support transparent elasticity, and…
Serverless computing offers attractive scalability, elasticity and cost-effectiveness. However, constraints on memory, CPU and function runtime have hindered its adoption for data-intensive applications and machine learning (ML) workloads.…
While (1) serverless computing is emerging as a popular form of cloud execution, datacenters are going through major changes: (2) storage dissaggregation in the system infrastructure level and (3) integration of domain-specific accelerators…
The pay-as-you-go model supported by existing cloud infrastructure providers is appealing to most application service providers to deliver their applications in the cloud. Within this context, elasticity of applications has become one of…
Elastic block storage (EBS) with the storage-compute disaggregated architecture stands as a pivotal piece in today's cloud. EBS furnishes users with storage capabilities through the elastic solid-state drive (ESSD). Nevertheless, despite…
Despite existing work in machine learning inference serving, ease-of-use and cost efficiency remain challenges at large scales. Developers must manually search through thousands of model-variants -- versions of already-trained models that…
Serverless computing has recently experienced significant adoption by several applications, especially Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In serverless computing, rather than deploying and managing dedicated virtual machines, users are…
As continuous learning based video analytics continue to evolve, the role of efficient edge servers in efficiently managing vast and dynamic datasets is becoming increasingly crucial. Unlike their compute architecture, storage and archival…
In today's Function-as-a-Service offerings, a programmer is usually responsible for configuring function memory for its successful execution, which allocates proportional function resources such as CPU and network. However, right-sizing the…
Existing serverless data analytics systems rely on external storage services like S3 for data shuffling and communication between cloud functions. While this approach provides the elasticity benefits of serverless computing, it incurs…
Data management applications store their data using structured files in which data are usually sorted to serve indexing and queries. However, in-place insertions and removals of data are not naturally supported in a file's address space. To…
