AWS Lambda Provisioned Concurrency: Build High-performance Serverless Applications at Scale

Simform

But it also introduces cold starts and latency, decelerating your applications’ performance. This blog discusses how Lambda provisioned concurrency reduces cold starts and improves the speed and performance of your applications. AWS Lambda provides various benefits such as scalability, cost-efficiency, high availability, and more.

Formal foundations of serverless computing

The Morning Paper

Formal foundations of serverless computing Jangda et al., won a distinguished paper award at OOPSLA this year for their work on ‘Formal foundations of serverless computing.’ They show the conditions under which a serverless function can safely ignore these peculiarities, and thus become much simpler to reason about.

Cloudburst: stateful functions-as-a-service

The Morning Paper

Today’s paper choice is a fresh-from-the-arXivs take on serverless computing from the RISELab at Berkeley, addressing some of the limitations outlined in last year’s ‘ Berkeley view on serverless computing.’ Cross-function communication should work at wire speed. arXiv 2020.

Seamless offloading of web app computations from mobile device to edge clouds via HTML5 Web Worker migration

The Morning Paper

Edge servers are the middle ground – more compute power than a mobile device, but with latency of just a few ms. The client MWW combines these estimates with an estimate of the input/output transmission time (latency) to find the worker with the minimum overall execution latency. The opencv app has the largest state (4.6
