The use of High Performance Computing (HPC) in commercial and consumer IT applications is becoming popular. They need the ability to gain rapid and scalable access to high-end computing capabilities. Cloud computing promises to deliver such…

Recently, serverless computing has gained recognition as a leading cloud computing method. Providing a solution that does not require direct server and infrastructure management, this technology has addressed many traditional model problems…

Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms provide scalable and cost-efficient execution but suffer from increased latency and resource overheads in complex applications comprising multiple functions, particularly due to double billing when…

Serverless computing has gained a strong traction in the cloud computing community in recent years. Among the many benefits of this novel computing model, the rapid auto-scaling capability of user applications takes prominence. However, the…

Increased adoption of scientific workflows in the community has urged for the development of multi-tenant platforms that provide these workflow executions as a service. As a result, Workflow-as-a-Service (WaaS) concept has been created by…

The IoT area has grown significantly in the last few years and is expected to reach a gigantic amount of 50 billion devices by 2020. The appearance of serverless architectures, specifically highlighting FaaS, raises the question of the of…

Serverless workflows have emerged in Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms to represent the operational structure of traditional applications. With latency propagation effects becoming increasingly prominent, step-wise resource tuning is…

Service Function Chaining (SFC) allows the forwarding of a traffic flow along a chain of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs, e.g., IDS, firewall, and NAT). Software Defined Networking (SDN) solutions can be used to support SFC reducing the…

This work introduces ECOLIFE, the first carbon-aware serverless function scheduler to co-optimize carbon footprint and performance. ECOLIFE builds on the key insight of intelligently exploiting multi-generation hardware to achieve high…

The traditional cloud-centric approach for Deep Learning (DL) requires training data to be collected and processed at a central server which is often challenging in privacy-sensitive domains like healthcare. Towards this, a new learning…

Software as a service (SaaS) has recently enjoyed much attention as it makes the use of software more convenient and cost-effective. At the same time, the arising of users' expectation for high quality service such as real-time information…

Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) has recently emerged as a new cloud computing paradigm. It promises high utilization of data center resources through allocating resources on demand at per-function request granularity. High cold-start…

Data lakes hold a growing amount of cold data that is infrequently accessed, yet require interactive response times. Serverless functions are seen as a way to address this use case since they offer an appealing alternative to maintaining…

Serverless computing, with its operational simplicity and on-demand scalability, has become a preferred paradigm for deploying workflow applications. However, resource allocation for workflows, particularly those with branching structures,…

The serverless computing ecosystem is growing due to interest by software engineers. Beside Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) and Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) systems, developer-oriented tools such as deployment and debugging frameworks as well…

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…

Constraints imposed by power consumption and the related costs are one of the key roadblocks to the design and development of next generation exascale systems. To mitigate these issues, strategies that reduce the power consumption of the…

In this paper, we demonstrate that a server running a single latency-sensitive application can be treated as a black box to reduce energy consumption while meeting an SLA target. We find that when the mean offered load is stable, one can…

Function as a Service (FaaS) is a new cloud technology with automated resource management. Different from traditional cloud computing, each FaaS cloud function can only run a fixed period of time before being decommissioned. Furthermore,…

Serverless computing adopts a pay-as-you-go billing model where applications are executed in stateless and shortlived containers triggered by events, resulting in a reduction of monetary costs and resource utilization. However, existing…
