How to optimize AWS Lambda performance

AWS Lambda has become the most widely used deployment pattern for serverless applications. It allows developers to set aside worrying about server provisioning, maintenance, idle capacity management and scaling, and instead to focus solely on writing business logic. But that’s not entirely true. Because while Lambda is a self-managed AWS service, it still requires careful design to get the best performance out of the computation capabilities it provides.

Provisioned Concurrency - the end of cold starts

AWS today announced Provisioned Concurrency, an exciting feature to allow Lambda customers to not have to worry about cold starts anymore. And we at Lumigo are proud to be an official launch partner for AWS Provisioned Concurrency. In this post we’ll drill into the problems cold starts pose, explore how Provisioned Concurrency resolves them, and explain some rough edges you need to understand when it comes to working with this new feature.

Migrating from IOpipe to Lumigo

You’ve no doubt heard that IOpipe has been acquired by New Relic (congratulations to both). As part of the acquisition, New Relic has said it intends to retire the IOpipe platform in the next 30 days. If you’re currently relying on the IOpipe platform to monitor and debug your serverless application you have an important decision to make. One option is to try out New Relic’s serverless monitoring functionality.

The why, when and how of API Gateway service proxies

Serverless Hero Yan Cui explains when and why you should use API Gateway service proxies, and introduces an open source tool to make it easy to implement. One of the very powerful and yet often under-utilized features of API Gateway is its ability to integrate directly with other AWS services. For example, you can connect API Gateway directly to an SNS topic without needing a Lambda function in the middle. Or to S3, or any number of AWS services.
