    Configuration Management Function Invocations Execution Environment Service Integrations So what have we been focusing on?
  10. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Latency

    Observability Configuration Management Function Invocations Execution Environment Service Integrations Language Support Costs Scalability New Paradigm
  11. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Function

    Invocations AWS Lambda Asynchronous Invocations (Event) Max event age Max retry attempt Destinations (to Lambda, SNS, SQS, EventBridge) ⇣ More controls for async and event-driven apps Scalability New Paradigm
  12. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. AWS

    Lambda – Destinations for Async Invocations Amazon S3 Amazon SNS Amazon SES Amazon EventBridge Amazon CloudWatch Logs AWS Config Amazon CloudFormation AWS CodeCommit AWS Lambda Amazon SNS Amazon SQS Amazon EventBridge Lambda Function onSuccess onFailure
  13. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Function

  18. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Execution

    Environment Latency Costs Scalability AWS Lambda Provisioned Concurrency ⇣ No more “cold starts” Real-time apps and games Applications with a slow initialization Download config/data on /tmp
  19. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. AWS

    Lambda – Provisioned Concurrency We do the initialization, you are responsible for the first invocation of the handler Avoid lazy initializations Integrated with CloudWatch Application Auto Scaling and AWS CodeDeploy
  20. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Execution

    Environment Costs Scalability New Paradigm AWS Step Functions Express Workflows ⇣ Build more modular apps Separate business process flow from implementation
