Fast forward to today : CI/CD, and deployment automation in general, are key to how John and I work with clients at Symphonia : it doesn’t matter if you’re using all the fanciest new cloud technology if you’re still waiting weeks to put new functionality into production. What are the AWS Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery tools?

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.

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!

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.

I was a little restricted in my thinking the first time around and I’ve come to see FaaS as something not quite stateless, since caching state in a Lambda instance that might stick around for 5 hours is a perfectly reasonable idea. and products like AWS Fargate have made this distinction murkier still.

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.

Streams provide you with the underlying infrastructure to create new applications, such as continuously updated free-text search indexes, caches, or other creative extensions requiring up-to-date table changes. An AWS Lambda function is a simpler option that you can use, as it only requires you to code the logic, set it, and forget it.

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.

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.
