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). This can cause latency outliers and may lead to a poor end-user experience for latency-sensitive applications.

We note that for MongoDB update latency is really very low (low is better) compared to other dbs, however the read latency is on the higher side. The latency table shows that 99th percentile latency for Yugabyte is quite high compared to others (lower is better). Again Yugabyte latency is quite high. Conclusion.
