Cold starts are definitely a hot topic when it comes to serverless, on any FaaS platform. Suggested remediations such as tricks to make them warmer are all around. But why are cold starts happening at all? Is it a broken design in the infrastructure or just a very hard thing to implement?

Join me in this serverless internals talk to dig deep in the infrastructure, understand more, followed by live examples and interesting experiments.
