Abstract

Online code judging tools are important for programming competitions and computer science education, as they allow for the automatic evaluation of submitted solutions. Among them, CD-MOJ stands out as one of the most widely used, currently available in a local infrastructure. This work proposes the development of a new code judge, named Nimbus, which will be available in the cloud and based on CD-MOJ. Comparative tests were conducted between CD-MOJ and Nimbus. The results show that migration to a serverless environment is a viable for implementing online judges.
