AbstractThis paper presentsfaas‐sim, a simulation framework tailored to serverless edge computing platforms. In serverless computing, platform operators are tasked with efficiently managing distributed computing infrastructure completely abstracted from application developers. To that end, platform operators and researchers need tools to design, build, and evaluate resource management techniques that efficiently use of infrastructure while optimizing application performance. This challenge is exacerbated in edge computing scenarios, where, compared to cloud computing, there is a lack of reference architectures, design tools, or standardized benchmarks.faas‐simbridges this gap by providing (a) a generalized model of serverless systems that builds on the function‐as‐a‐service abstraction, (b) a simulator that uses trace data from real‐world edge computing testbeds and representative workloads, and (c) a network topology generator to model and simulate distributed and heterogeneous edge‐cloud systems. We present the conceptual design, implementation, and a thorough evaluation offaas‐sim. By running experiments on both real‐world test beds and replicating them usingfaas‐sim, we show that the simulator provides accurate results and reasonable simulation performance. We have profiled a wide range of edge computing infrastructure and workloads, focusing on typical edge computing scenarios such as edge AI inference or data processing. Moreover, we present several instances where we have successfully usedfaas‐simto either design, optimize, or evaluate serverless edge computing systems.
