Over the course of this post, we will talk about our approach to this migration, the strategies that we employed, and the tools we built to support this. Functional Testing Functional testing was the most straightforward of them all: a set of tests alongside each path exercised it against the old and new endpoints.

In this post, we compare ScaleGrid’s Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) plan vs. the standard Dedicated Hosting model to help you determine the best strategy for your MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis™ and MongoDB® database deployment. Deploying your application and database on the same VPC also provides the lowest possible latency path. No problem.

RUM, however, has some limitations, including the following: RUM requires traffic to be useful. Because RUM relies on user-generated traffic, it’s hard to indicate persistent issues across the board. connectivity, access, user count, latency) of geographic regions. Real user monitoring limitations. The bottom line?

VPC Endpoints give you the ability to control whether network traffic between your application and DynamoDB traverses the public Internet or stays within your virtual private cloud. Performant – DynamoDB consistently delivers single-digit millisecond latencies even as your traffic volume increases.

There are many possible failure modes, and each exercises a different aspect of resilience. Collecting some critical metrics at one second intervals, with a total observability latency of ten seconds or less matches the human attention span much better. A resilient system continues to operate successfully in the presence of failures.
