@coryodaniel : Rewrote an #AWS APIGateway & #lambda service that was costing us about $16000 / month in #elixir. 12 million requests / hour with sub-second latency, ~300GB of throughput / day. it’s not Serverless anymore it’s running in a few containers on a kubernetes cluster. myelixirstatus !#Serverless.No

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.

We are increasingly seeing customers wanting to build Internet-scale applications that require diverse data models. 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. Purpose-built databases.

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.
