Abstract:As cloud workloads increasingly adopt the faulttolerant Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) model, demand for improved performance has increased. Alas, the performance of FaaS applications is heavily bottlenecked by the remote object store in which FaaS objects are maintained. We identify that the upcoming CXL-based cache-coherent disaggregated memory is a promising technology for maintaining FaaS objects. Our analysis indicates that CXL's low-latency, high-bandwidth access characteristics coupled with compute-side c… Show more
