AWS Lambda Containers - bridging the gap between serverless and containers once and for all
1 like450 views
This document discusses bridging the gap between serverless and containers by leveraging AWS Lambda container image support. It begins by introducing the speaker and their experience with serverless technologies. The rest of the document is organized into sections that discuss why serverless and containers make sense together, demonstrate how to implement and migrate to Lambda container images using examples, highlight some pitfalls to watch out for, and argue that containers can be improved with a serverless-first approach.

AWS Lambda Containers - bridging the gap between serverless and containers once and for all
- 1. AWS Lambda Containers Bridging the Gap between Serverless and Containers once and for all 24/02/2021 Serverless Meetup Sydney Yun Zhi Lin Partner - Deloitte Platform Engineering
- 2. About Me Yun = Cloud ไบ Partner at Deloitte Platform Engineering Serverless First since 2016 Author of serverless-golang and 2018 lambda benchmarks @yunzhilin @mrserveless What people think I do: What I really do:
- 3. Agenda โข Tell me why? โข Implementation/Migration โข Pitfalls to watch for โข Make containers great again!
- 4. Tell me Why? Arenโt nothing but a Container
- 5. Time for a Poll! โข Do you use serverless technologies in anger in Production? โข Do you use containers in anger in Production? NEW FLASH: As of 9/2/2021, Lambda Container Image support is available in Sydney region!
- 6. Serverless vs Container Debates Are mostly debating: Function as a Service (FaaS) vs Kubernetes Orchestration
- 7. Serverless != FaaS donโt pay for it if no one uses it (except storage) Donโt need to worry about scaling (up or down) Donโt need to provision and manage servers DynamoDB Amazon S3 AWS Amplify Lex Lambda
- 8. Containers != Kubernetes Itโs just a standardised way to package up immutable artefacts
- 9. Serverless Containers make good sense Immutable infrastructure Portability FinOps billing paradigm
- 11. Anatomy of a Lambda Container Use AWS Base Image Migrate Your Own Base Image Source Files Deps Source Files Deps Runtime Interface Client (RIC) ENTRYPOINT ENTRYPOINT Runtime Interface Emulatior (RIE)
- 12. Demo Time Code is here: serverlesscloud/serverless- containers (github.com) Serverless and SAM Java, Node, Golang Build, Local Run, Deploy
- 13. Pitfalls to watch out for Bug or Features, these require some attention
- 14. Whatโs wrong this architecture? Dev Account UAT Account Prod Account Dev Lambda UAT Lambda Prod Lambda Dev ECR UAT ECR Prod ECR IMG:v1 IMG:v1 IMG:v1
- 15. Should be more like this right? Platform Shared Services Dev Account Prod Account UAT Lambda Prod Lambda Central ECR IMG:v1 Dev Lambda UAT Account IMG:v1 IMG:v1
- 16. But cross account ECR access isnโt allowedโฆ yet
- 17. Similar Serverless Container Offerings Google Cloud Run Azure Functions on Kubernetes
- 18. Tooling Comparison Functionality Serverless Framework SAM Scaffolding No Container templates as of v2.25.2 Yes AWS SSO No Add support for AWS CLI v2 SSO profiles ยท Issue #7567 ยท serverless/serverless (github.com) Yes Local Run No โ work around with docker run sam local invoke sam local start-api Docker build wrapper No โ but thatโs good! Yes via sam build โ but why? Deploy Lambda type = Image Yes Yes
- 20. Serverless First is even easier with Container Portability! And App Modernisation is more Streamlined
- 21. Remember Serverless + Containers gives new meaning to Serverless First and Legacy App Migration Serverless + Containers brings new Developer Experience Serverless != FaaS Containers != Kubernetes
