(Research) Insights for Serverless Application Engineering

• The special issue of IEEE Software, the ‘Practitioners Digest’ reports on papers about serverless application engineering from Journal of Systems and Software, the 2020 European Conference on Software Architecture, and the 19th International Conference on Middleware. ‘Function-as-a-Service Performance Evaluation: A Multivocal Literature Review’ by Joel Scheuner and Philipp Leitner describes 112 studies that report the empirical evaluation of the performance of function-as-a-service (FaaS) platforms. FaaS is a form of serverless cloud computing and is de fined as FaaS platform Web Services (AWS) executing event-triggered code snippets. This paper consolidates the results from 61 industrial and 51 academic performance studies and provides actionable recommendations on reproducible FaaS experimentation.
