Understanding Event Source Mapping (ESM) is crucial for real-time and asynchronous workloads
Partition key management in services like Amazon Kinesis and DynamoDB Streams is vital in ensuring order and scalability.
Sequential processing ensures that events related to transactions, for instance, are handled in order.
Routing unrecoverable errors to Dead Letter Queues (DLQs) is essential in event-driven systems to ensure failed events are analyzed or resolved manually.
Parallelization and batch processing have become critical features for optimizing performance and error mitigation.
Custom-building error-handling features, for instance, are required when leveraging Kafka as an alternative to Amazon Kinesis.
Downstream traffic limits can pose scaling challenges that require throttling, backpressure mechanisms, and pre-filtering records to prevent overwhelming downstream components.
Best practices for building resilient event-driven Architectures include error handling, DLQ configuration and monitoring, monitoring metrics, adjusting batch sizes, and graceful error handling.
Balancing throughput, order guarantees, and error isolation is crucial in event-driven Architectures to ensure system efficiency and reliability.
The session at AWS re:Invent provides practical knowledge for building robust, scalable event-driven systems.
