This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $300,000 supports research at Northwestern University from January 2023 to December 2025 to accelerate serverless cloud network performance. The grant is funded through the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program. Specifically, the university researchers will develop a cross-layered approach to optimize function chain communication in serverless cloud environments. This includes a new QUIC-based network substrate to improve performance and security without code modifications. Additionally, the researchers will utilize data-plane programming and request prediction to optimize resource allocation and mitigate cold-start issues in multi-tenant serverless clouds. The open-source implementations and evaluation environments will benefit diverse stakeholders. The researchers intend to transition results to commercial cloud services and open-source communities such as OpenFaaS. Outreach is planned for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as women and minorities.
