DynamoDB Streams is the enabling technology behind two other features announced today: cross-region replication maintains identical copies of DynamoDB tables across AWS regions with push-button ease, and triggers execute AWS Lambda functions on streams, allowing you to respond to changing data conditions. Let me expand on each one of them.

Customers have been asking to add file system functionality to our set of solutions as much of their traditional software required a broad accessible shared file system. Amazon Lambda. One of the most exciting technologies we have built lately at AWS is Amazon Lambda. Today Amazon Lambda is entering General Availability.

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.

Zones impact how we build, deploy, and operate software, as well as how we enforce security controls between our largest systems. The second benefit is even more powerful: if there is an error in the software, the risk of that error affecting other zones is minimized. One is that the latency within a zone is incredibly fast.

Let's talk about the elephant in the room; Serverless doesn't really mean that there are no Software or Hardware servers. It just means that from Software Development perspective, servers are abstracted and outsourced to another entity, so you don't need to worry about it. Amazon: AWS Lambda. Google: Google Cloud Functions.

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. This allows for faster failover times while minimizing latency. The client keeps a map of Redis nodes, which is updated in case of failover.

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. Incremental computations over sliding windows is a group of techniques that are widely used in digital signal processing, in both software and hardware. Jacobsen and R.

We suspect this points to a general drift toward software teams taking more responsibility for infrastructure, and increasingly, enabled by serverless options. Given that Amazon’s AWS Lambda functions are only five years old this November, anyone with more than three years of experience is a very early adopter.

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 cost calculations, the costs are a combination of compute costs, storage costs, data scan costs, and software license costs. The design space. Key findings.

In addition, traditional CMS solutions lack integration with modern software stack, cloud services, and software delivery pipelines. 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.

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. I also rewrote the section on Startup Latency since Cold Starts are one of the big “FUD” areas of Serverless.

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.
