Microservices, it has been suggested, also need a solid relish (and a bun backbone), without which they fail to be easily consumed. A Redis Labs IDC ‘InfoBrief’ study (another name for a ‘survey’ presumably) named “The Impact of Application Modernisation on the Data Layer” suggests that nearly half of microservices applications rely on a database.

These two Lambda functions are used to interact with the Redis database to insert, update, delete, and query. The application uses the RediSearch API that provides rich query and search functionalities. Serverless, using AWS Lambda, fits into the growing trend towards microservice architectures as it allows developers to reduce the scope of a business “service” into ... Read More
