Function as a Service (FaaS) for Fast, Efficient, Scalable Systems

Abstract

Function as a service (FaaS) is a central component of serverless computing, reshaping the landscape of application development in the cloud. FaaS allows developers to create stateless functions responding to specific events, triggering execution without the need for direct infrastructure management. This architecture abstracts developers from underlying complexities, emphasizing code-centric development. The pay-per-use model, automatic scaling, and event-driven execution contribute to an efficient, cost-effective, and responsive application development process. This abstract presents an overview of the core principles of FaaS, emphasizing its transformative role in modern cloud computing. Function as a Service (FaaS) is an essential element of serverless computing, reshaping the landscape of cloud-based application development. FaaS empowers developers to craft concise, stateless functions tailored for specific tasks triggered by diverse events. By abstracting infrastructure management, developers can concentrate solely on coding.
