MeSHwA: The case for a Memory-Safe Software and Hardware Architecture for Serverless Computing. (arXiv:2211.08056v1 [cs.OS])

Motivated by developer productivity, serverless computing, and microservices
have become the de facto development model in the cloud. Microservices
decompose monolithic applications into separate functional units deployed
individually. This deployment model, however, costs CSPs a large infrastructure
tax of more than 25%. To overcome these limitations, CSPs shift workloads to
Infrastructure Processing Units (IPUs) like Amazon's Nitro or, complementary,
innovate by building on memory-safe languages and novel software abstractions.
Based on these trends, we hypothesize a \arch providing a general-purpose …
