I don't use SAM but I do use Lambda and I disagree with everything you say here. FaaS allows me to completely eliminate web server junk from my brain. I only have to think about individual functions (routes) that takes some input and produce an output. Essentially I can focus completely on my business domain.
- tuyguntn 8y agowithout fine-tuning. How do you handle database connection pooling? yes, lambda can scale as a function, but not as a wrapper around database (yet)
- adrianm 8y agoWhat about Datomic Ions?
- djstein 8y agoI think the answer to this right now is either: - DynamoDB - Aurora In my case I am going to go with Aurora as I am deploying Django applications with Lambda
- some_account 8y agoDynomodb for nosql managed dB, or Aurora with read replicas and multi - AZ for high availability.
- zbentley 8y ago> FaaS allows me to completely eliminate web server junk from my brain. Sure, but that "junk" is key to making things scale. Prototype on whatever you want, but if you have to leave the prototype phase you have to care about/get involved in that layer.
- Touche 8y agoNot all parts of your app need to scale in the way you are talking about, that's the key thing FaaS detractors miss.
- manigandham 8y agoWeb server junk is just replaced with FaaS junk.
