For example, to handle traffic spikes and pay only for what they use. These functions are executed by a serverless platform or provider (such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions or Google Cloud Functions) that manages the underlying infrastructure, scaling and billing. Scale automatically based on the demand and traffic patterns.

Then they tried to scale it to cope with high traffic and discovered that some of the state transitions in their step functions were too frequent, and they had some overly chatty calls between AWS lambda functions and S3. They state in the blog that this was quick to build, which is the point.

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.

There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. Every opportunity for delay due to more work than the best case or more time waiting than the best case increases the latency and they all add up and create a long tail. Mu is the mean of each component, the latency.

" Silo your traffic or not – you choose. One is that the latency within a zone is incredibly fast. To provide geographic diversity and lower latencies to end users. For our edge services such as Amazon CloudFront, Amazon Route 53, and AWS Lambda@Edge, we operate over 100 points of presence.

those resources now belong to cloud providers, such as AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, and others. However, when the time comes for resources to be requested, there can be latency in the time it takes to for that code to start back up. The time it takes between an action and a response is latency.

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. This scaling takes away the worry from random and unexpected traffic spikes or big seasonal traffic. latency, startup, mocking, etc.) 1 reported benefit.
