Understanding how AWS Lambda scales with HAQM SQS standard queues
This post explores Lambda’s scaling behavior when subscribed to SQS standard queues. It walks through several ways to scale faster and maximize Lambda throughput when needed. This includes increasing the memory allocation for the Lambda function, increasing batch size, catching errors, and making configuration changes.
Creating a serverless face blurring service for photos in HAQM S3
A serverless face blurring service can provide a simpler way to process photos in workloads with large amounts of traffic. This post introduces an example application that blurs faces when images are saved in an S3 bucket. The S3 PutObject event invokes a Lambda function that uses HAQM Rekognition to detect faces and GraphicsMagick to process the images.
