The Rise of Serverless Cloud Computing and A Journey to Enhance Its Efficiency and Sustainability
The Rise of Serverless Cloud Computing and A Journey to Enhance Its Efficiency and Sustainability
Abstract: Serverless computing has gained significant traction in the past few years. Removing most of the provisioning burden from the shoulders of developers, offering a pay-per-use pricing model, and accelerating deployment of scalable applications are some of serverless's unique attractions. These operational benefits come with efficiency costs, making serverless up to 15x more energy-hungry than... Read more
