Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a type of serverless computing that allows developers to write and deploy code as individual functions, which can be triggered by specific events or requests. FaaS platforms automatically manage the…
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…
Modern scientific applications are increasingly decomposable into individual functions that may be deployed across distributed and diverse cyberinfrastructure such as supercomputers, clouds, and accelerators. Such applications call for new…
Function-as-a-service (FaaS) is a popular serverless computing paradigm for developing event-driven functions that elastically scale on public clouds. FaaS workflows, such as AWS Step Functions and Azure Durable Functions, are composed from…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is one of the most promising directions for the future of cloud services, and serverless functions have immediately become a new middleware for building scalable and cost-efficient microservices and…
Serverless computing with cloud functions is quickly gaining adoption, but constrains programmers with its limited support for state management. We introduce a shared file system for cloud functions. It offers familiar POSIX semantics while…
Serverless computing along with Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is forming a new computing paradigm that is anticipated to found the next generation of cloud systems. The popularity of this paradigm is due to offering a highly transparent…
This work pursues automated planning and scheduling of distributed data pipelines, or workflows. We develop a general workflow and resource graph representation that includes both data processing and sharing components with corresponding…
Serverless computing has rapidly grown following the launch of Amazon's Lambda platform. Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) a key enabler of serverless computing allows an application to be decomposed into simple, standalone functions that are…
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…
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…
Dataflow devices represent an avenue towards saving the control and data movement overhead of Load-Store Architectures. Various dataflow accelerators have been proposed, but how to efficiently schedule applications on such devices remains…
In recent years, serverless computing, especially Function as a Service (FaaS), is rapidly growing in popularity as a cloud programming model. The serverless computing model provides an intuitive interface for developing cloud-based…
Serverless Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms provide applications with resources that are highly elastic, quick to instantiate, accounted at fine granularity, and without the need for explicit runtime resource orchestration. This…
In cloud event processing, data generated at the edge is processed in real-time by cloud resources. Both distributed stream processing (DSP) and Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) have been proposed to implement such event processing…
Modern FaaS systems perform well in the case of repeat executions when function working sets stay small. However, these platforms are less effective when applied to more complex, large-scale and dynamic workloads. In this paper, we…
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, also referred to as Function-as-a-Service (FaaS), is a cloud computing model that has attracted significant attention and has been widely adopted in recent years. The serverless computing model offers an intuitive,…
Due to the variety of its target use cases and the large API surface area to cover, a data lakehouse (DLH) is a natural candidate for a composable data system. Bauplan is a composable DLH built on "spare data parts" and a unified…
More and more enterprises recently intend to deploy data management systems in the cloud. Due to the professionalism of software development, it has still been difficult for non-programmers to develop this kind of systems, even a small one.…
