Serverless Predictions: 2021-2030
This addresses the problem of resource limitations for cloud application developers by predicting incremental advancements in serverless computing over the next decade.
The paper tackles the challenge of enabling unmodified single-machine applications to run on effectively unlimited remote computing resources through serverless predictions for 2021-2030, aiming to realize a vision of transparency akin to proposals like the Serverless SuperComputer or Infinite Laptop.
Within the next 10 years, advances on resource disaggregation will enable full transparency for most Cloud applications: to run unmodified single-machine applications over effectively unlimited remote computing resources. In this article, we present five serverless predictions for the next decade that will realize this vision of transparency -- equivalent to Tim Wagner's Serverless SuperComputer or AnyScale's Infinite Laptop proposals.
