Technologies for matching security requirements of function-as-a-service in edge clouds

An apparatus comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable medium;
• instructions;
• a logic circuit to execute the instructions to at least:
• parse a function as a service (FaaS) request to identify a security requirement wherein the FaaS request includes an executable file that includes preprocessing code, the preprocessing code is at least one of:
• code that invokes an application programming interface (API) exposed by an edge gateway, code that causes an edge gateway to analyze a security feature of an edge gateway after an update is installed at the edge gateway, or a field programmable gateway array (FPGA) stream to be executed by an accelerated device on an edge gateway device;
• identify an accelerated function for execution;
• store, in a queue, FaaS service providers that perform the accelerated function and meet the security requirement based on instructions associated with the FaaS request;
• distribute the FaaS request to one of the FaaS service providers;
• and
• in response to receiving a result of the FaaS request, transmit the result of the accelerated function to a sender of the FaaS request.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least:

• parse a function as a service (FaaS) request to identify a security requirement, wherein the FaaS request includes an executable file that includes preprocessing code and the preprocessing code, when executed, causes an edge gateway to analyze a security feature of an edge gateway after an update is installed at the edge gateway;
• identify an accelerated function for execution;
• store, in a queue, FaaS service providers that perform the accelerated function and meet the security requirement based on instructions associated with the FaaS request;
