Avaliação das linguagens python e go na plataforma AWS lambda para aplicações de computação de alto desempenho

Abstract

With the use of the serverless paradigm to use high performance applications due to the enabling environment of a cloud through its scalability and elasticity, some initial questions arise to the developer who intends to run his high performance application in a serverless architecture. Thus, knowing the benefits and limitations of this architecture becomes relevant for these developers. One of the initial questions that arise is about the best language to be used to build these applications. Seeking to solve these initial questions, this work addresses an analysis of the Python and Go languages used in the construction of high performance applications in the serverless paradigm on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud platform, performing a function execution, in the AWS Lambda service, of Multiplication of Serial Matrices, a problem widely used in several works. With these possible experiments, verify that the best alternative choice as defined is Python using the NumPy library. And between Go and Python pure, that is, without using libraries, the best option is the Go language.
