Function as a Service footprint

[Łukasz Mastalerz]

Hello, 

Couple of months ago I wanted to understand the footprint of serverless and Function as a Service in particular as compared to VM's and realised that there doesn't seem to be anything that would give me this data at the granularity I wanted. 

I've done a bit of research and published my findings here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/quantifying-greenness-faas-lukasz-mastalerz

If you think this methodology is something worth implementing in Cloud Carbon Footprint calculator I'm happy to help. 

Cheers,

Hello!

Great job with your article! I think your findings seem to be very agreeable. Have you had a chance to look through our methodology and how we go about estimating AWS Lambda?

If you have the time/bandwidth, we would be happy to look over and issue/pull request you would be willing to submit to incorporate any update in the methodology and implementation that you might have in mind!

Thanks,
Cam
