Abstract

Disclosed methods and systems for implementing serverless management of platform resources maintain a function-as-a-service (FaaS) mapping database associating a resource and management function combination with a locator identifying a container image for implementing management interactions required to perform the management function. When a FaaS request indicating a function-resource combination is detected, the applicable locator is retrieved from the mapping database and the corresponding container image is deployed. Each resource may correspond to a specific version of a specific make or model, e.g., a server model and a firmware version. API, protocol, and messaging specifics for performing the function on the resource are embedded in each container image. Thus, the container image for an inventory operation on a server with a first version of firmware may execute SOAP-based messaging while the image for the same operation on the same server model provisioned with a second firmware version may invoke a RESTful API.
