What We Learned Going Serverless

on YouTube ↗47m

" summary

Serverless implementation uses AWS services (API Gateway, AWS Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, Cognito, SQS, SNS, CloudFormation) to ingest 35,000 daily files; a load test of 1,000 small files triggers 9,000 function executions and never exceeds 68 queued messages, while a 3,000 large-file test (each 91 GB) averages 15 seconds per file. Infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD are mandatory. Estimated variable cost for 4 million files (≈12 TB/year) is about $462 annually plus $63 fixed, and the system meets scalability and cost goals.
