Description

Currently we only support simple invocation policies with sequential and parallel invocations. We have a first pending PR to integrate an external invoker with sinusodial pattern (#212). We should merge that and then integrate a new workload generator, such as FaaSRail.

Tasks

  • Add few more patterns - linear scaling, bursty, constant workload.
  • Integrate artillery into SeBS as an invocation option.
  • Add artillery as a dependency for the project.
  • Get HTTP trigger for selected function.
  • Test extensively.

Research direction

Start by reviewing pending PR #212 and the current invocation-policy integration, then assess how Artillery or FaaSRail would fit as a workload generator. Define the required linear, bursty, constant, and HTTP-triggered workloads, add Artillery as a project dependency, and verify the integration with extensive tests.
