In one embodiment, a method comprises: receiving, by a process, an executed function flow of a daisy chained serverless function-as-a-service (FaaS) function, the executed function flow having been injected with a particular trace identifier in response to an initial event trigger and span identifiers having been injected by each service that was executed; generating, by the process, a serverless flow graph associated with the particular trace identifier based on linking a path of serverless functions according to correlation of the span identifiers between the serverless functions; performing, by the process, a trace-based analysis of the serverless flow graph through comparison to a baseline of expectation; detecting, by the process, one or more anomalies in the serverless flow graph according to the trace-based analysis; and mitigating, by the process, the one or more anomalies in the serverless flow graph.
