Abstract
A system can determine that a first containerized function invokes a second containerized function. The system can identify a first number of instances of the first containerized function, and a second number of instances of the second containerized function. The system can determine a first cost of executing the first number of instances of the first containerized function, and the second number of instances of the second containerized function, wherein the first cost comprises a first computer memory cost, a first computer storage cost, and a first service level agreement violation cost. The system can determine a second cost associated with executing a third number of instances of a third container that comprises the first function and the second function. The system can, in response to determining that the second cost is less than the first cost, execute the third number of instances of the third container.
