One of the few marketing videos that was clearly understandable to programmers, and without the marketing spiel
This is genuinely a really well made (and written) video. I feel like I could show non-tech people this and they'd walk away with the gist – if not all the specifics – of what Lambda functions do. Kudos to the group that made this :)
BEST EXPLAINATION VIDEO!
can lambda have a HEV suit and kills combines
Is Serverless computing only for purposes like these micro services? Or, is there an option like hosting an entire web application in serverless environment, so that it auto scales depending on traffic?
This video... is pretty cute. One thing about Lambda is how well it runs untrusted code. For example, if you provision an arbitrary lambda function to run with 128MB and 1 compute unit, with a timeout of 3 seconds, it is possible for the function to eat up resources beyond the limits, and is it possible to get charged if the function doesn't respond to a kill signal at 3 seconds? For example, a malicious function might run an intense CPU task which might take long for AWS to kill. If AWS's kill signal is not implemented well, is the developer charged for the spillover in resource and compute time? What if the untrusted function writes megabytes of data to the system.out, and you have logging enabled? Are there easy ways to mitigate these types of attacks? Will the developer be forced to parse out any system.out statements in untrusted code? As a developer, if I set a timeout for 3 seconds, there's no way I would want to pay for 20 minutes if the function stopped responding. This is one potential concern for using Lambda. It would be nice if AWS addressed these concerns.
- how this differs from old php-like hostings, heroku, etc? - can I setup lambda on my server\OpenStack?
We’re a big time AWS client here @ Chase Bank
You need to know Node.js, python or Java for compiling into lambda
Very nice video. Simplicity much appreciated.
Very Nice Video. Good and Easy Explanation.
I'm taken by this. I read a book with similar content, and I was completely taken by it. "Mastering AWS: A Software Engineers Guide" by Nathan Vale
Love this video! Do you mind me asking what software you used to produce it?
I don't get this: with or without lambda, the service needs a code itself . So what is the difference with server or with lambda ? still needs the code anyway ...
nice explanation
doesn't firebase already do this basically?
The best explainer video. Thank you
Great video
Well done with the video.
