Rise of the Planet of Serverless Computing: A Systematic Review
Serverless computing is an emerging cloud computing paradigm, being adopted to develop a wide range of software applications.
It allows developers to focus on the application logic in the granularity of function, thereby freeing developers from tedious and
error-prone infrastructure management. Meanwhile, its unique characteristic poses new challenges to the development and deployment
of serverless-based applications. To tackle these challenges, enormous research efforts have been devoted. This paper provides a
comprehensive literature review to characterize the current research state of serverless computing. Specifically, this paper covers 164
papers on 17 research directions of serverless computing, including performance optimization, programming framework, application
migration, multi-cloud development, testing and debugging, etc. It also derives research trends, focus, and commonly-used platforms
for serverless computing, as well as promising research opportunities
Next Generation Cloud Computing: New Trends and Research Directions
The landscape of cloud computing has significantly changed over the last
decade. Not only have more providers and service offerings crowded the space,
but also cloud infrastructure that was traditionally limited to single provider
data centers is now evolving. In this paper, we firstly discuss the changing
cloud infrastructure and consider the use of infrastructure from multiple
providers and the benefit of decentralising computing away from data centers.
These trends have resulted in the need for a variety of new computing
architectures that will be offered by future cloud infrastructure. These
architectures are anticipated to impact areas, such as connecting people and
devices, data-intensive computing, the service space and self-learning systems.
Finally, we lay out a roadmap of challenges that will need to be addressed for
realising the potential of next generation cloud systems.Comment: Accepted to Future Generation Computer Systems, 07 September 201
