Abstract
Performance monitoring and analysis of applications are imperative tasks for application developers, including serverless application developers. Application developers, in general, focus on developing their application logic rather than looking into the performance bottlenecks of serverless functions. In this review article, available performance analysis tools and monitoring mechanisms for IoT-enabled serverless applications are explored. Efforts are taken to investigate the existing performance analysis tools, their merits, demerits, and the performance metrics for IoT-enabled serverless applications. Further, various challenges, highlighting the need for the attributes for implementing sophisticated performance analysis tools of IoT-enabled serverless applications, are discussed. This article will be beneficial for the performance analysis tool developers or the serverless cloud application developers.
