Object Abstraction for Streamlined Cloud-Native Development

This paper addresses the complexity of cloud-native application development by proposing the Object-as-a-Service (OaaS) paradigm. It's significant because it aims to simplify deployment and management, a common pain point for developers. The research is grounded in empirical studies, including interviews and user studies, which strengthens its claims by validating practitioner needs. The focus on automation and maintainability over pure cost optimization is a relevant observation in modern software development.

• •Proposes Object-as-a-Service (OaaS) as a unified approach to cloud-native development.
• •Emphasizes automation and maintainability as key priorities for developers.
• •Demonstrates performance improvements (e.g., faster task completion, reduced code) in edge-cloud scenarios.
• •Uses empirical studies (interviews, user studies) to validate its claims.
