Hi Raj, can you plz reply to this ?

Just saw this Bitter Lime. Do you mean the "Serverless First" Twitch event? Or do you mean something else?

@@cloudwithraj Yes Raj the twitch event :)

We have a similar scenario. Were you able to find a optimum solution? If yes, could you please share?

@@franklinantony Sadly no. We fiddled with the settings a lot and eventually it became stable enough that it doesn't cause any issues. Other things came up and we never had the time to go back and look at it in more detail. I still feel annoyed that I don't understand enough about it. I want to say that AWS released a feature that sounded like it would help for our particular case though. I only read about it briefly a while back so I might be completely wrong. In our case the issue was the number of connections to the database and it sounded like a feature was added to lambdas to manage the connection to the databases as in, if there are no connections available, no more lambdas would spawn. That would have addressed our problem perfectly. But that is if that feature actually does what I think it does. I really hope that I can put in the time to look at it soon.

Hi Raj, can you plz reply to this ?

Hi Raj, Can you share ppt!

Thanks! 😃

Hey Denys, do you have the use case? Like are you trying to use SQS with Dynamo streams? here is a blog - aws.amazon.com/blogs/database/dynamodb-streams-use-cases-and-design-patterns/. Let me know your use case and I can suggest some ways accordingly.

@@cloudwithraj I was thinking about e-com case when we push orders to the queue, then process them with lambda a save to dynamodb. In case if we trigger lambda each time then queue has a message, I do not see big diff here. But if we will use something like that dashbird.io/blog/cost-efficient-ways-to-run-dynamodb-tables, this is more interesting, but still, I do not know if it the best way to handle such a scenario. They take messages from the queue and increase dynamodb provisioned capacity if there are a lot of messages. Let me know what you think, please.

@@cloud_architector Thanks for the background Denys. This has lot of factors, depending on your traffic. Depending on traffic rate, provisioned capacity will work. Ondemand handles spiky traffic better, however can be more expensive. One strategy is to use ondemand first, gain traffic nature, then set provisioned capacity accordingly. I am skeptical about changing the RCU, LCU based on sqs depth on the fly because of three reasons: 1. There will be some delay to change the capacity before you can start processing messages. You can manage batch size and concurrency of the consumer lambda instead, based on provisioned capacity of your table, to control the rate of consumption. Since you are consuming in batch fashion anyway, there is no SLA pressure. 2. The Lambda now will have IAM permission to change Dynamo table configuration, this is not recommended. Application lambda should do application logic, and separate process should change configuration. 3. Ideally if you can solve a design problem with AWS components that's one less headache to worry about. Nothing against dashbird, but if you use native AWS components, and when AWS enhances capability it's much easier to adopt. And you don't have to think about security compliance of third party vendors. Sorry for the long response, let me know what you think. Happy New Year Denys.

@@cloudwithraj Same for you Rajdeep!!! Thank you for your help!!!

Yes, you can now. The time this video was made, that feature was not there

You are correct. I will put a pinned comment. Unfortunately no way to update a KZfaq video.
