Serverless architectural patterns

on YouTube ↗51m

" summary

Shows concrete serverless choices and tradeoffs: use API Gateway 29s timeout to justify background work; use SQS/SNS/Kinesis/DynamoDB Streams for brokering with differing retry, retention and cost profiles (Kinesis: per-shard concurrency, up to two-week retention; DynamoDB Streams: free with table); SQS lacked native Lambda trigger in 2018. Recommends decoupled invocation, pub‑sub, cron via CloudWatch Events, and sagas implemented with Step Functions and compensating actions. Notes default limits like default 1000 concurrency limit and that Kinesis shard controls concurrency, gives multi‑region, Athena/Macie examples and production lessons.
