The Easiest Way to Compute in the Cloud – AWS Lambda

All Things Distributed

Capital-intensive storage solutions became as simple as PUTting and GETting objects in Amazon S3. Our answer is a new compute service called AWS Lambda. AWS Lambda makes building and delivering applications much easier by giving you a simple interface to upload your Node.js

Choosing a cloud DBMS: architectures and tradeoffs

The Morning Paper

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. Query restrictions.

In-Stream Big Data Processing

Highly Scalable

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. The pipelines can be stateful and the engine’s middleware should provide a persistent storage to enable state checkpointing. Marz, “Big Data Lambda Architecture”.

Cloudburst: stateful functions-as-a-service

The Morning Paper

The key ingredients of Cloudburst are a highly-scalable key-value store for persistent state ( Anna ), local caches co-located with function execution environments, and cache-consistency protocols to preserve developer sanity while data is moved in and out of those caches. Updates should be allowed at any function invocation site.

Accelerating Data: Faster and More Scalable ElastiCache for Redis

All Things Distributed

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. Amazon’s enhancements address many day-to-day challenges with running Redis.

A one size fits all database doesn't fit anyone

All Things Distributed

As I have talked about before, one of the reasons why we built Amazon DynamoDB was that Amazon was pushing the limits of what was a leading commercial database at the time and we were unable to sustain the availability, scalability, and performance needs that our growing Amazon.com business demanded. The opposite is true.
