It is increasingly common to outsource network functions (NFs) to the cloud. However, no cloud providers offer NFs-as-a-Service (NFaaS) that allows users to run custom NFs. Our work addresses how a cloud provider can offer NFaaS. We use the…
Serverless computing is a buzzword that is being used commonly in the world of technology and among developers and businesses. Using the Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) model of serverless, one can easily deploy their applications to the cloud…
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…
Next generation technologies such as smart healthcare, self-driving cars, and smart cities require new approaches to deal with the network traffic generated by the Internet of Things (IoT) devices, as well as efficient programming models to…
Serverless computing is a popular cloud computing paradigm that frees developers from server management. Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is the most popular implementation of serverless computing, representing applications as event-driven and…
Experimental data can aid in gaining insights about a system operation, as well as determining critical aspects of a modelling or simulation process. In this paper, we analyze the data acquired from an extensive experimentation process in a…
Serverless clouds promise efficient scaling, reduced toil and monetary costs. Yet, serverless-ing a complex, legacy application might require major refactoring and thus is risky. As a case study, we use Airflow, an industry-standard…
Automatic network management strategies have become paramount for meeting the needs of innovative real-time and data-intensive applications, such as in the Internet of Things. However, meeting the ever-growing and fluctuating demands for…
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…
Serverless computing is becoming widely adopted among cloud providers, thus making increasingly popular the Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) programming model, where the developers realize services by packaging sequences of stateless function…
5G and beyond support the deployment of vertical applications, which is particularly appealing in combination with network slicing and edge computing to create a logically isolated environment for executing customer services. Even if…
Microservices architectures are a departure from traditional Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Influenced by Domain Driven Design (DDD), microservices architectures aim to help business analysts and enterprise architects develop scalable…
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…
Microservice architecture has transformed the way developers are building and deploying applications in the nowadays cloud computing centers. This new approach provides increased scalability, flexibility, manageability, and performance…
Serverless computing is a paradigm in which the underlying infrastructure is fully managed by the provider, enabling applications and services to be executed with elastic resource provisioning and minimal operational overhead. A core model…
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…
Cloud service provider propose services to insensitive customers to use their platform. Different services can achieve the same result at different cost. In this paper, we study the efficiency of a serverless architecture for running highly…
Most cloud platforms have a Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) offering that enables users to easily write highly scalable applications. To better understand how the platform's architecture impacts its performance, we present a research-focused…
Serverless computing -- an emerging cloud-native paradigm for the deployment of applications and services -- represents an evolution in cloud application development, programming models, abstractions, and platforms. It promises a real…
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…
