Last week we looked at a function shipping solution to the problem; Cloudburst uses the more common data shipping to bring data to caches next to function runtimes (though you could also make a case that the scheduling algorithm placing function execution in locations where the data is cached a flavour of function-shipping too).

It’s not just limited to cloud resources like AWS and Azure; Terraform is versatile, extending its capabilities to key performance areas like Content Delivery Network (CDN) management, ensuring efficient content delivery and optimal user experience.‍Started As businesses grow and demand fluctuates, infrastructure needs to adapt.

In fact, Amazon Web Services (AWS) paved the way with its service, CloudFormation, which introduced the concept of Infrastructure as Code (IaC). Taking inspiration from AWS's CloudFormation, HashiCorp introduced Terraform with a broader vision. As businesses grow and demand fluctuates, infrastructure needs to adapt.

An open-source benchmark suite for microservices and their hardware-software implications for cloud & edge systems Gan et al., Microservices fundamentally change a lot of assumptions current cloud systems are designed with, and present both opportunities and challenges when optimizing for quality of service (QoS) and utilization.

Three years ago, as part of our AWS Fast Data journey we introduced Amazon ElastiCache for Redis , a fully managed in-memory data store that operates at sub-millisecond latency. While caching continues to be a dominant use of ElastiCache for Redis, we see customers increasingly use it as an in-memory NoSQL database.

Generally to cache data (including non-persistent data that never sees a backing store), to share non-persistent data across application services (e.g. ” Even re-reading that today, the letter of the law there is surprisingly strict to me: you can use the local memory space or filesystem as a brief single transaction cache, but no more.

In fact, this is been proven by our customers as Amazon Aurora remains the fastest growing service in AWS history. Developers are building highly distributed and decoupled applications, and AWS enables developers to build these cloud-native applications by using multiple AWS services. The opposite is true.

Serverless functions are stateless , but can opportunistically reuse cached state across invocations to speed up start times. Lambda operational semantics. But actually it all boils down to how you define the relation: two program states can be specified to be equivalent even when their cache state is different. Don’t do that!

So it is convenient for all to use irrespective of internet speed and it works offline using cached data. Serverless architecture is the fastest-growing cloud computing paradigm nowadays. This architecture runs on cloud technology, and developers can focus on the code instead of the scaling, maintenance, and infrastructure facilities.
