Have you looked at Kinesis Firehose? It was pretty much build for this use case although you will still need to see if you can define a partitioning scheme probably in combination with an S3 Select query to meet your query requirements. ht

Because you already have a $50B business that runs on the slow thing. So from a risk and cost/benefit analysis making the slow thing fast sounds a lot better than "rewrite everything".

Also security, compliance, disaster recovery, many geographic / data locality issues, and maybe most importantly comfort-level for enterprise IT departments. For example we have a product in a regulated industry and running on AWS gets

Except you’ve picked out two of the most complex and deep services as “foundational”.

Yes that's right. You can use SSM to port forward. Here's an example of the SSH configuration. host i-* mi-* ProxyCommand sh -c "aws ssm start-session --target %h --document-name AWS-StartSSHSession"

Yeah I used the ARM price. I should have pointed that out. It's definitely a tradeoff. Here's a few things I think are advantageous for Lambda, * Integration with all the AWS Event Sources. * Faster autoscaling. * No need to setu

Insanely expensive is definitely a flexible term. I think numbers help here. Provisions Concurrency $8.64 / GB / month 256 MB per Lambda (Assuming Python, Ruby, NodeJS, or Rust) $2.16 per Lambda per month A lot of organizations ca

That sounds right about ML startups. But ML startups or even venture funded companies are a very small percentage of companies - especially when it comes to spending signficant dollars.

It's priced at almost 100x revenue.

Most companies except the ones paying AWS/Azure/GCP a combined $100B+ per year and growing fast?

"Eating AWS's lunch" seems quite speculative. R2 is a blog post. S3 is the industry standard to the extent that everyone else creates products based on a subset of the S3 API. S3 is also a cornerstone of the AWS ecosystems wh

Oh that's nice! Thank you.

A potential next step if it fits your workflow is to create a macro triggered by save. I have one that optimizes imports, reformats code and do silent code cleanup.

This a life changing video by Gil Tene on this topic. Bottom line is because of the number requests to support a single customer "request", the high percentiles are the ones that actually matter. https://www.youtube.com

Just so it's clear to everyone, companies much smaller than SAP or Microsoft self insure. In the United States virtually every employer with more than 500 employees is going to self insure. And while these companies do have access to d

Depending on the project a database (Postgres) can make a nice database, queue and cache. You get transactions among all three which which makes life much simpler in the beginning and it will happily march along processing thousands or tens

This just isn't accurate. Messaging solutions have always supported request-reply. Just as examples, https://activemq.apache.org/how-should-i-implement-request-r... https://nats.io/documentation/co

Right. For those interested OpenHFT has created a really nice set of open source solutions to do this. https://github.com/OpenHFT/Chronicle-Queue#design

For those interested in this type of thing, Li Haoyi created an in depth look at the Scala structures. http://www.lihaoyi.com/post/BenchmarkingScalaCollections.htm... It includes some interesting commentary as well.

Scala and Clojure should run under pljava. Probably not a lot of people doing that though!

Java's reputation for sluggishness was really formed based on people's experience with Applets and Swing applications and especially badly written Applets and Swing applications. Java in the real world is fast. That's why it&

Absolutely. This is a sign that the system is working. Amazon doesn't have a monopoloy on jobs that allows it to pay dramatically under market for warehouse workers. Roofing especially in a hot climate is harder more demanding work tha

I'm not saying their workplace is great. I'm just saying it's not directly tied to their success. They run large logistics warehouses. That's just hard physical labor where you're paid based on production. A great b

Are you suggesting that by winning in ecommerce and cloud computing they're gaining a monopoloy on jobs? Seems like a stretch. There have always been and probably always will be unpleasant jobs. I watched 6 guys replace the roof of my

What are examples of the small businesses that survived Walmart/Target but are now being killed by Amazon? Small hosting providers maybe.

These numbers look pretty good compared to my experience with large corporate organizations.

That is nice. It's also almost indistuishable from Java 10. The string interpolation at the end is the last big syntactic nicety Java is missing - at least relative to this example.
