Understanding and Managing AWS Lambda Recursive Loop Invocations

2024-06-11T01:05:06+00:00

Introduction AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service that allows developers to run code without provisioning or managing servers. It automatically scales applications by running code in response to events and only charges for the compute time used. This makes AWS Lambda an ideal choice for building scalable and cost-effective applications. However, one challenge that developers might encounter is recursive loop invocations. This occurs when a Lambda function inadvertently triggers itself, leading to a potentially endless loop of invocations. This can result in high costs and system instability if not properly managed. In this blog post, we will explore the [...]

Basics of the Basics to AWS – Part 0: Where do we begin?

2024-05-05T12:37:39+00:00

This 6-part series is inspired from a talk I gave on the AWS Student Community Day 2024 Philippines. Through this series, I will be teaching you the basics of AWS through a gimmick I call “Build an App with Me”. This gimmick will be about us trying to model an application’s system architecture through the use of AWS services. Through this gimmick, I aim to give you all a better understanding of when and where we should use different AWS services because I believe that the best way to learn is through application. A few of the 200+ AWS [...]
