Execution Traces of an MNIST Workflow on a Serverless Edge Testbed

<p>For the evaluation of a Serverless Edge Computing platform, we built an Edge Cloud testbed consisting of several machines:</p> <ul> <li>A Cloud VM</li> <li>An Nvidia Jetson TX</li> <li>Four Raspberry Pi 3b+</li> <li>Two Intel NUCs with i5 processors</li> </ul> <p>We were interested in profiling these devices with a Machine Learning workflow deployed as a serverless application. To that end, we implemented three functions: Preprocessing, Training, and Serving as OpenFaaS functions. The workflow trains an MNIST model.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
