Abstract:
Technologies for function as a service (FaaS) arbitration include an edge gateway, multiple endpoint devices, and multiple service providers. The edge gateway receives a registration request from a service provider that is indicative of an FaaS function identifier and a transform function. The edge gateway verifies an attestation received from the service provider and registers the service provider. The edge gateway receives a function execution request from an endpoint device that is indicative of the FaaS function identifier. The edge gateway selects the service provider based on the FaaS function identifier, programs an accelerator with the transform function, executes the transform function with the accelerator to transform the function execution request to a provider request, and submits the provider request to the service provider. The service provider may be selected based on an expected service level included in the function execution request. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
