  • In this video, I talk to you about Lambda throttling. I start by describing what Throttling is and why it happens. From there, I walk you through a practical example in which throttling occurs. I discuss the different handling methods depending on your invocation event source. Finally, I talk about best practices and how you can prevent Lambda Throttling for your application.

    Reserved concurrency can breach the limit of the overall quota for a region I believe right?
    E.g. you can give a function a reserved concurrency value of 2000 and another function a reserved concurrency value of 3000 and that's perfectly acceptable even without ever having asked for a limit increase right? Of course there can still be throttling in this case but it would significantly reduce chances of throttling to set the value to a very large amount

  • @ayushigupta542
    @ayushigupta542 2 года назад +1

    Hi, Great video!
    Could you please help with this - I manually throttled the lambda and uploaded some files to s3 bucket. We have one SNS topic for S3 event source which then invokes lambda. When I unthrottle the lambda by changing the concurrency back to default one, all the throttled events are lost. Even after changing the SNS retry policy, there aren't nay retries happening.

    • @BeABetterDev
      @BeABetterDev  2 года назад +2

      Hi Ayushi,
      When SNS encounters throttles from Lambda, it will retry 3 times immediately without delay. If it still can't succeed, it will keep retrying for a long period of time (23 days). You can see more about the retry counts at this link in the chart near the top of the page: docs.aws.amazon.com/sns/latest/dg/sns-message-delivery-retries.html
      For reasons like this, its usually a good idea to use SNS -> SQS -> Lambda instead of SNS -> Lambda directly. It gives you more visibility into the messages (all messages will get delivered to your queue no matter what) so there is less confusion when situations like yours arise.
      Hope this helps
      Daniel

      Thanks @@BeABetterDev , it is really helpful.
      I will use SQS to prevent the loss of events or avoid this kind of confusion.

      Hi Vikas, by default it is 1000. I believe you can increase it much further if you request a support ticket.

    Just one question, if we want to increase the limit from 1000 to 2000 for 'Unreserved Account Concurrency' , AWS is going to charge extra amount for it or it is free?

    • @BeABetterDev
      @BeABetterDev  4 года назад +1

      Totally free!

    • @jamesonji
      @jamesonji 4 года назад

      Limit increase is free, if you invoker more Lambda functions you will pay more anyways.

    Hi sorry i think your wrong about SQS Lambda error handling, it is documented it will do an exponential backoff retries. if im not wrong.

  • @mhoskins555
    @mhoskins555 4 года назад +1

    Hi all, I'm trying to intentionally throttle my Lambda so that it doesn't call a third-party API more than 500 times per second. Anyone have an idea how to do that? The cheapest solution I've found so far is to set up a token bucket in dynamoDB, but it feels like overkill.
    This video is about concurrency, but limiting that is no good since that doesn't have anything to do with a timespan.

    • @BeABetterDev
      @BeABetterDev  4 года назад +1

      Hi there,
      Have you looked into toying with Lambda's 'concurrency' setting? This allows you as the user to specify the amount of concurrent requests your lambda processes. You can do some quick math based on your processing speed to figure out the right value. I.e. if you set your concurrency to 2, and each invocation is 100ms each, you would process 20 events / second.
      Hope this helps.

      @@BeABetterDev Hello, I have the same issue. If I limit to 1 concurrency, my call will be throttles.
      Could I use an SQS to store all my calls and execute them one by one on another lambda?
