Abstract

Techniques that facilitate re-hosting a subset of a serverless application are provided. In one example, a system includes an interface component, a rewriter component and a broker component. The interface component receives identifier data from a computing device that identifies a portion of a serverless application to be re-hosted by the computing device. The computing device is in communication with the serverless computing system via a network device. The rewriter component rewrites the serverless application to allow the first portion of the serverless application to be executed by the computing device and another portion of the serverless application to be executed by the serverless computing system. The interface component re-routes the first portion of the serverless application to the computing device to facilitate a debugging session for the first portion of the serverless application that is performed by the computing device.

Claims (23)

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

receiving, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, identifier data from a computing device that identifies a first portion of a serverless application to be re-hosted by the computing device, wherein the system is in communication with the computing device via a network device;

transmitting, by the system, the first portion of the serverless application to the computing device;

facilitating, by the system, performance of a debugging session associated with the first portion of the serverless application via the computing device; and

executing, by the system, a second portion of the serverless application, wherein the executing the second portion of the serverless application is performed while the computing device performs the debugging session associated with the first portion of the serverless application.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the system, a modified version of the first portion of the serverless application from the computing device.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , further comprising:

combining, by the system, the modified version of the first portion of the serverless application with the second portion of the serverless application.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 ,

wherein the executing the second portion of the serverless application is performed based on real-time data associated with the debugging session.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 4 , wherein the executing is performed to facilitate a reduced number of errors associated with the serverless application.

6. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

determining, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, identifier data associated with a first portion of a serverless application;

transmitting, by the system, the identifier data to a serverless computing system via a network device;

receiving, by the system, the first portion of the serverless application from the serverless computing system; and

performing, by the system, a debugging session associated with the first portion of the serverless application approximately concurrently to execution of a second portion of the serverless application by the serverless computing system, wherein the performing the debugging session comprises employing a debugger application via a computing device that is in communication with the serverless computing system via a network device.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , further comprising:

communicating, by the system, with the serverless computing system via a network device.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the system, a modified version of the first portion of the serverless application to the serverless computing system.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the system, real-time data associated with the debugging session to the serverless computing system.
