Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: Chris Munns. Serverless application architectures enable you to break large projects into smaller, more manageable services that are highly reusable and independently scalable, secured, and evolved over time. As serverless architectures grow, we have seen common patterns that get reimplemented across companies, teams, and projects, hurting development velocity and leading to wasted effort. We have made it easier to develop new serverless architectures that meet organizational best practices by supporting nested applications in AWS SAM and the AWS Serverless Application Repository.How it works Nested applications build off a concept in AWS CloudFormation called nested stacks ...

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. PREVIOUS POST PostgreSQL streaming physical replication with slots simplifies setup and maintenance procedures. Usually, you should estimate disk usage for the Write Ahead Log (WAL) and provide appropriate limitation to the number of segments and setup of the WAL archive procedure. In this article, you will see how to use replication with slots and understand what problems it could solve. Introduction PostgreSQL physical replication is based on WAL. Th Write Ahead Log contains all database changes, saved in 16MB segment files. Normally postgres tries to keep segments between checkpoints. So with default settings, just 1GB of WAL segment files is ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: John Mount. Pipelines in R are popular, the most popular one being magrittr as used by dplyr. This note will discuss the advanced re-usable piping systems: rquery/rqdatatable operator trees and wrapr function object pipelines. In each case we have a set of objects designed to extract extra power from the wrapr dot-arrow pipe %.>%. Piping Piping is not much more than having a system that lets one treat “x %.>% f(.)” as a near synonym for “f(x)”. For the wrapr dot arrow pipe the semantics are intentionally closer to (x %.>% f(.)) ~ {. . The pipe ... Read More
