Dynatrace is proud to be an AWS launch partner in support of Amazon Lambda SnapStart. The new Amazon capability enables customers to improve the startup latency of their functions from several seconds to as low as sub-second (up to 10 times faster) at P99 (the 99th latency percentile). What is Lambda?
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.
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).
Use cases such as gaming, ad tech, and IoT lend themselves particularly well to the key-value data model where the access patterns require low-latency Gets/Puts for known key values. The purpose of DynamoDB is to provide consistent single-digit millisecond latency for any scale of workloads.
The mean and percentile measurements hide this structure, but the rest of this post will show how the structure can be measured and analyzed so that you can figure out a useful model of your system, understand what is driving the long tail of latencies and come up with better SLAs and measures of capacity.
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.
The paper examines the implications of microservices at the hardware, OS and networking stack, cluster management, and application framework levels, as well as the impact of tail latency. Smaller microservices demonstrated much better instruction-cache locality than their monolithic counterparts. Hardware implications.
Which I’m quite happy to see as my most recent data pipeline is based around Lambda, S3, and Athena, and it’s been working great for my use case. For query executors that can be frequently started and stopped the authors explore performance with cold and warm caches (where applicable), and also the horizontal and vertical scaling performance.
This system has been designed to supplement and succeed the existing Hadoop-based system that had too high latency of data processing and too high maintenance costs. In many cases join is performed on a finite time window or other type of buffer e.g. LFU cache that contains most frequent tuples in the stream. Jacobsen and R.
For example, to reduce latency, serverless platforms try to reuse the same function instance to process multiple requests. Serverless functions are stateless , but can opportunistically reuse cached state across invocations to speed up start times. Lambda operational semantics. Don’t do that! What about external services.
Using CDN for the whole website, you can offload most of the website traffic to your CDN which will handle not only large traffic spikes but also reduce the latency of content delivery. Secondly, having a CDN in front of origin (static site or APIs) reduces the global and regional latency. Eventually, we decided to move them to Jekyll.
For example, Lambda@Edge request pricing is $0.6 Some are standard, offering the basic services you need to ensure traffic routing and low latency, while others offer premium services like advanced security capabilities. For example, the first 10TB to South America cost $0.11.Source: per one million requests.
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. Lambda has configuration now and it has reserved capacity to help you avoid DoS’ing yourself.
CloudFront makes a simple choice here as it offers direct integration with all these services to let you cache responses across its global edge locations. And on top of that, you're doing computation at the edge using Lambda@Edge, where you've deployed thousands of lines of JavaScript code at the edge.
