Getting started with Chalice to create AWS Lambdas in Python – Step by Step TutorialTech by Sunny Srinidhi - November 14, 2019November 14, 20190 Using Chalice, you can write a Lambda function, test it locally, and even deploy the Lambda function to your development, test, or production environments. In this post, we’ll see how we can install Chalice on our local machines, write a simple REST API to return the famous “Hello, world!” response, and deploy it to a dev stage on AWS Lambda.
Invoke an AWS Lambda Function from another Lambda FunctionData ScienceTech by Sunny Srinidhi - November 4, 2019November 4, 20190 I recently discovered that you can't invoke more than one Lambda function in AWS for an S3 event, with the same prefix and suffix (or just with the same suffix, which was the issue in my case). So I wanted a way to invoke one Lambda function from another Lambda function. If you're feeling kind of lost, check out the problem statement in my Github project. That could possibly add some context to the problem. If you don't want to go there, I'll try to explain it here again. The Problem and the Requirement In one of our projects, we have a Lambda function which is invoked whenever a text file is uploaded to a particular S3 bucket. The Lambda function takes
How to automatically trigger AWS Lambda functions using CloudWatchTech by Sunny Srinidhi - November 2, 20190 If you have AWS Lambda functions which need to be triggered periodically, like CRON jobs, there are many ways to achieve this. But I recently discovered a very easy and AWS-way of doing this, which makes life a lot easier. So, there are a lot of ways you can trigger Lambda functions periodically. One of the most common ways I've see people doing this is adding an API Gateway to the Lambda function, and then calling that API periodically as a CRON job from one of the machines in the setup. I actually thought this is how you're supposed do to that. Okay, let me make this clear. I'm not a DevOps guy. I just learn these things as and when
Integrate AWS DynamoDB with Spring BootTech by Sunny Srinidhi - June 26, 2019March 12, 20200 Here is another POC to add to the growing list of POCs on my Github profile. Today, we’ll see how to integrate AWS DynamoDB with a Spring Boot application. This is going to be super simple, thanks to the AWS Java SDK and the Spring Data DynamoDB package. Let’s get started then. Dependencies First, as usual, we need to create a Spring Boot project, the dependencies of which look like: <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId> <artifactId>aws-java-sdk-dynamodb</artifactId> <version>1.11.573</version>

Real-Time Data Processing: Understanding the What, Why, Where, Who, and HowData ScienceTech by Sunny Srinidhi - October 22, 20240 In today’s data-driven world, businesses and organizations are continuously generating massive amounts of data. While processing data in batch mode remains useful, the need for instant decision-making has led to an increasing focus on real-time data processing. This article delves into what real-time data processing is, why it's essential, its various applications, the tools used to achieve it, trends shaping its evolution, and real-world use cases. What is Real-Time Data Processing? Real-time data processing refers to the capability to continuously ingest, process, and output data as soon as it is generated, with minimal latency. Unlike batch processing, which collects and processes data in large groups at set intervals (e.g., daily or hourly), real-time processing works with data immediately as it becomes available,
