Abstract

As technology advances, it becomes increasingly challenging to identify the best approach or method to develop and distribute software that meets the ultimate goals of its creators and users, without becoming economically unfeasible and technically complex. Recognizing the relevance of a third-party infrastructure solution (cloud computing) option and the use of the serverless paradigm for such an approach, this study proposes an approach for selecting serverless platforms using a decision-making multicriteria method. The criteria used to model the solution were extracted from serverless service providers as well as from the analysis of benchmarking reports of serverless providers. Experiments regarding the accuracy and performance of the solution were carried out, together with the comparison of an implementation of the multicriteria method used available in a software library. As a result, it was identified that both implementations of the decision-making multicriteria method algorithm obtained 100% accuracy in the results in a controlled environment. However, the algorithm implemented in this work presented a better performance in computation time in scenarios with more than 500 serverless providers.
