FunDa: Towards Serverless Data Analytics and In Situ Query Processing
Suvam Kumar Das, Ronnit Peter, Xiaozheng Zhang, Suprio Ray · 2024
Serverless is a cloud computing paradigm that offers unique advantages to the users due to its pay-what-you-use model. It is particularly suitable for running ephemeral short running tasks. However, this framework is not well-suited for stateful long running data analytics and query processing tasks. Although several recent projects have proposed serverless query processing or data analytics systems that are based on AWS Lambda, they are limited by its constraints and the inherent limitations of serverless.
