Re: Announcing Django-Zappa - Serverless Django on AWS Lambda + API Gateway

2016-02-08 Thread Cristiano Coelho
Hello, I would like to suggest that you include the limitations AWS Lambda 
and API Gateway has, since I have used them and it is not suitable for 
every use case.

For example, one of the biggest limitations is that an Lambda can run for 
at most 5 minutes, but if paired with API Gateway, it can only run for 1 
minute before returning a time out, I know 1 minute is quite a lot, but if 
you have any kind of multimedia processing (like uploading a file, or 
downloading one that is generated on the server like a PDF) you will need 
to re write some code to use other amazon services such as S3.
Other limitations include things such as 100 concurrent requests at a time 
and 500 requests per second, payload for request and respose size limits of 
6mb and other things that can be read here 
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws_service_limits.html

Some (most) of those limits can be increased by request to Amazon.

Leaving the limitations aside, AWS Lambda is really a great product I 
highly recommend!

Announcing Django-Zappa - Serverless Django on AWS Lambda + API Gateway

2016-02-08 Thread Rich Jones
Hey guys!

(I also made this post to django-users, but I think the discussion here can 
be about ways that we can improve Django to work better on AWS Lambda. 
Forgive the double-post.)

I'm pleased to announce the release of Django-Zappa - a way to run 
serverless Django on AWS Lambda + API Gateway.

Now, with a single command, you can deploy your Django apps in an 
infinitely scalable, zero-configuration and incredibly cheap way!

Read the announcement post here: 
https://gun.io/blog/announcing-zappa-serverless-python-aws-lambda/
Watch a screencast here:

And see the code here: https://github.com/Miserlou/django-zappa

Comments, questions and pull requests are welcome!

It seems quite performant already, but I bet there are ways that we can 
improve Django to work better on Lambda. 

Enjoy,
Rich Jones
