A single VM is all fine and well until your hacky go-fast code allows an issue with a single request to take down your service. Serverless requests are isolated and will limit the blast radius of your hacky code as you iterate quickly.
- number6 2y agoNever saw a single request taking down a whole server. Killed a worker and the connection timed out, but never saw it take down the whole thing. Faulty input killing your logic - I saw this plenty, would Lambda really help here?
- abrookewood 2y agoI've seen it plenty. A request to process an Excel file or generate a PDF etc. Basically anything generating or processing documents is a likely candidate. It might only affect a single application, but if you are running multiple apps on a box, it is often enough to cause an outage.
