Evaluating Serverless Architecture for Big Data Enterprise Applications
Aimer Bhat, Heeki Park, Madhumonti Roy · 2021
Migration of enterprise applications to the cloud has been driven by a myriad of benefits ranging from availability of infinite computing resources to the elimination of upfront CapEx cost. However, many users still face the burden of complex framework knowledge requirement to efficiently deploy applications in the cloud. In this paper, we investigate serverless computing for performing large scale data processing with cloud-native primitives. Serverless computing environment abstracts all infrastructure handling, simplifying developers’ work who aspire to deploy applications on the cloud. With dynamic input load on the system, serverless architecture has promise to provide better resource utilization and lower costs.
