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. Building upon Redis. Redis and Fast Data. Redis and Fast Data.

Investigating a video streaming failure consists of inspecting all aspects of a member account. If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Storage: don’t break the bank!
