Azure Functions Blob Access Trace 2020

-- revision 1, 20210904

Introduction

This is a sample of the blob accesses in Microsoft's Azure Functions, collected between November 23rd and December 6th 2020. This dataset is the data described and analyzed in the SoCC 2021 paper 'Faa$T: A Transparent Auto-Scaling Cache for Serverless Applications'.

Functions in Azure Functions are grouped into Applications. Included here is only data pertaining to a random sample of Azure Functions applications. The sampling is done per application, so that if there is data about an application in the trace, then all of its functions are included. The sampling rate is unspecified for confidentiality reasons.

The dataset comprises this description and a Jupyter Notebook with the plots in the SoCC paper.

Validation

This data is the sample data used in the SoCC paper mentioned above. To verify the data, we reproduce the characterization graphs in the paper using the released trace in this Jupyter Notebook.
