Abstract
Event-driven processing is facilitated by a unikernel-based method which includes receiving, based on an event, a code execution request containing parameter values for an application code unikernel. The application code unikernel includes uploaded application code in a single-purpose virtual machine image. Based on receiving the code execution request, the application code unikernel is run, which includes providing the parameter values as bootvariables as part of booting the program code unikernel. Further, running the application code unikernel may include executing the application code unikernel directly on a hypervisor. The application code unikernel may include only operating system components required to run the uploaded application code.
