Résumé

Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) is an approach to managing the entire lifecycle of a machine learning model. It has evolved over the last years and has started attracting many people in research and businesses in the industry. It supports the development of machine learning (ML) pipelines typical in the phases of data collection, data pre-processing, building datasets, model training, hyper-parameters refinement, testing, and deployment to production. This complex pipeline workflow is a tedious process of iterative experimentation. Moreover, cloud computing services provide advanced features for managing ML stages and deploying them efficiently to production. Specifically, serverless computing has been applied in different stages of the machine learning pipeline. However, to the best of our knowledge, it is missing to know the serverless suitability and benefits it can provide to the ML pipeline. In this paper, we provide a systematic mapping study of machine learning systems applied on serverless architecture that include 53 relevant studies. During this study, we focused on (1) exploring the evolution trend and the main venues; (2) determining the researchers’ focus and interest in using serverless on machine learning; (3) discussing solutions that serverless computing provides to machine learning. Our results show that serverless usage is growing, and several venues are interested in the topic. In addition, we found that the most widely used serverless provider is AWS Lambda, where the primary application was used in the deployment of the ML model. Additionally, several challenges were explored, such as reducing cost, resource scalability, and reducing latency. We also discuss the potential challenges of adopting ML on serverless, such as respecting service level agreement, the cold start problem, security, and privacy. Finally, our contribution provides foundations for future research and applications that involve machine learning in serverless computing.
