ABSTRACT Serverless dew computing, an innovative merger of serverless and dew computing, deploys serverless functions at the edge of networks near users and data devices, contrasting centralized clouds. Dew computing combines cloud principles with end‐user devices like PCs and phones, enhancing experiences beyond traditional clouds and addressing connectivity dependence. It stands out for independence and collaboration. Despite its youth, dew computing reshapes cloud resource utilization, blending cloud capabilities with local devices for reliability, efficiency and user‐friendliness. Serverless edge computing combines both paradigms by deploying serverless functions onto edge devices for swift data processing, easing cloud provider burdens. This research delves into serverless dew computing, focusing on parameter analysis. It examines the adoption, challenges and prospects of this edge paradigm, spotlighting potential disruptions. The data selection process is carried out using the guidelines provided by the Prisma tool. The study scrutinizes around 50 papers, analyzing methodologies, challenges, results and parameters. It spans serverless dew computing's foundational concepts, industry applications, advantages over clouds and its role in data privacy.
