Abstract
A serverless computing system executes user-submitted code in sandboxed environments such as virtual machines or containers. To support execution of parallel applications that require data transfer between instances of the application, the serverless computing system implements an ephemeral mesh network that allows instances of the parallel application to communicate with each other while executing in their respective sandboxes. In some embodiments, a controller or parent application may also connect to the ephemeral mesh network to coordinate execution of the parallel applications. In other embodiments, the parent application may be external to the serverless computing system. The serverless computing system may connect and disconnect sandboxed environments from the ephemeral mesh network as parallel applications start and stop executing, and may remove the network and terminate the parallel applications when the parent application stops executing.
