Smart Healthcare System in Server-Less Environment: Concepts, Architecture, Challenges, Future Directions

Abstract

Server-less computing is a novel cloud-based paradigm that is gaining popularity today for running widely distributed applications. When it comes to server-less computing, features are available via subscription. Server-less computing is advantageous to developers since it lets them install and run programs without worrying about the underlying architecture. A common choice for code deployment these days, server-less design is preferred because of its independence, affordability, and simplicity. The healthcare industry is one excellent setting in which server-less computing can shine. In the existing literature, we can see that fewer studies have been put forward or explored in the area of server-less computing with respect to smart healthcare systems. A cloud infrastructure can help deliver services to both users and healthcare providers. The main aim of our research is to cover various topics on the implementation of server-less computing in the current healthcare sector. We have carried out our studies, which are adopted in the healthcare domain and reported on an in-depth analysis in this article. We have listed various issues and challenges, and various recommendations to adopt server-less computing in the healthcare sector.
