Thanks, Marc!
I'd like to note that STeLLAR is available on GitHub (https://t.co/uK7ANX1TyI) so the community can give it a try

STeLLAR supports benchmarking AWS, Azure and Google FaaS as well as vHive/Knative (https://t.co/YrdAJ1Cmkz)

A productive summer for the vHive team at @ease_lab!

A lot of credit goes to our fantastic project students and interns: @boramalper @mikebaczun @shyam_jesal @TAmariucai 👏

Stay tuned for more updates 👀

[Dmitrii Ustiugov @DmitriiUstiugov]

vHive v1.4 (https://t.co/nFzep5pwr8) adds Google gVisor uVMs support along with Firecracker uVMs, and regular containers!
Now you can experiment with a serverless cluster comprising any of these tech-s.

[Dmitrii Ustiugov @DmitriiUstiugov]

vHive v1.3 release comes with the guides for porting arbitrary serverless workloads to #vHive, and analyzing their performance end-to-end & in-depth.

We added tracing, showing both the provider and the user components (figures below).

Got interesting workloads? Reach out!👍

We release vHive, an open-source framework for serverless experimentation and innovation across the full serverless stack. Check our ASPLOS'21 paper (https://t.co/oYKt4uXCqS) and join the vHive open-source community (https://t.co/9GMBGY5q0k) now!

[ease_lab @ease_lab]

Stay tuned for the upcoming end-to-end serverless benchmarking platform release!
We integrate leading industrial components, incl. AWS Firecracker, CNCF's Containerd and Kubernetes/KNative, to facilitate academic innovation across the whole serverless stack.

[ease_lab @ease_lab]

Two @ease_lab papers accepted to @ASPLOSConf! Small software changes in Linux kernel and Firecracker, big impact! Cheers @artmargaritov @DmitriiUstiugov @ThePlamenPetrov
