Simulating FaaS Orchestrations In The Cloud-Edge Continuum
Alessio Matricardi, Alessandro Bocci, Stefano Forti, Antonio Brogi · 2023
Deploying Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) applications to resources in the Cloud-Edge continuum calls for suitable simulation environments to assess new proposals for managing those applications while accounting for their specificity, i.e. ephemeral deployment and orchestrated execution. Indeed, exploiting real infrastructures for extensive experiments, while considering heterogeneous nodes and different applications, is costly and time-consuming.
