How do we send posts to social medias?
A bit of history... 2010 -> 2012: Joel (founder/ceo) 1
cronjob on a Linode server $20/mo 512 mb of RAM 2012 -> 2017 : Sunil (ex-CTO) Crons running on AWS ElasticBeanstalk / supervisord 2017 -> now: Kubernetes / CronJob controller
AWS Elastic Beanstalk: Kubernetes:
At what scale? ~ 3 million SQS messages per hour
Different patterns for many queues
Are our workers (consumers of the SQS queues ) efficients?
Are our workers efficients?
Are our workers efficients?
Empty messages? > Workers tries to pull messages from SQS,
but receive “nothing” to process
Number of empty messages per queue
Sum of empty messages on all queues
None
1,000,000 API calls to AWS costs 0.40$ We have 7,2B
calls/month for “empty messages” It costs ~$25k/year > Me:
None
AWS SQS Doc
None
Or in the AWS console
Results?
empty messages
AWS
None
$120 > $50 saved daily > $2000 / month >
$25,000 / year (it’s USD, not TWD)
Paid for querying “nothing”
(for the past 8 years )
Benefits - Saving money - Less CPU usage (less empty
requests) - Less throttling (misleading) - Less containers > Better resources allocation: memory/cpu request
Why did that happen?
Default options
None
Never questioning what’s working decently or the way it’s been
always done
What could have helped? Infra as code (explicit options /
standardization) SLI/SLOs (keep re-evaluating what’s important) AWS architecture reviews (taging/recommendations from aws solutions architects)

Need to analytics on Twitter/FB/IG/LKD… on millions on posts faster
workers consuming time
None
What’s the problem?
Resources allocated and not doing anything most of the time
Developer trying to put find compromises on the number of workers
How to solve it?
Autoscaling! (with Keda.sh) Supported by IBM / Redhat / Microsoft
None
Results
None
But notice anything?
Before autoscaling
After autoscaling
After autoscaling
What’s happening?
Downscaling
Why?
delete pod lifecycle
what went wrong - Workers didn’t manage SIGTERM sent by
k8s - Kept processing messages - Messages were halfway processed and killed - Messages were sent back to the the queue again - Less workers because of downscaling
solution - When receiving SIGTERM stop processing new messages -
Set a graceful period long enough to process the current message if (SIGTERM) { // finish current processing and stop receiving new messages }
None
None
And it can also help with sqs empty messages

Thanks!
