Abstract
A process or may reduce start latency of serverless microservices. The processor may detect an incoming request or event to an application in a serverless microservice environment. The incoming request or event may initiate a chain of invocations of one or more microservices of the application. The processor may select an amount of selected microservices from the one or more microservices of the application. The amount of selected microservices may perform a task of the incoming request or event. The task may apply one or more predefined application-specific rules to one or more elements of the incoming request or event to determine the amount of selected microservices. The processor may trigger scaling up activation of the one or more microservices of the application. The processor may invoke the one or more microservices of the application to match the amount of selected microservices.
