FaaSConf: QoS-aware Hybrid Resources Configuration for Serverless Workflows

Yilun Wang, Pengfei Chen, Hui Dou, Yiwen Zhang, Guangba Yu, Zilong He, Haiyu Huang

Abstract

Serverless computing, also known as Function-as-a-Service (FaaS), is a significant development trend in modern software system architecture. The workflow composition of multiple short-lived functions has emerged as a prominent pattern in FaaS, exposing a considerable resources configuration challenge compared to individual independent serverless functions. This challenge unfolds in two ways. Firstly, workflows frequently encounter dynamic and concurrent user workloads, increasing the risk of QoS violations. Secondly, the performance of a function can be affected by the resource reprovision of other functions within the workflow.
