Feed: AWS Partner Network (APN) Blog. Author: Bill Tarr. By Bill Tarr, Sr. Partner Solutions Architect, AWS SaaS FactoryMany software-as-a-service (SaaS) organizations leverage AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) as the backbone of their tenant isolation strategy.

The challenge here is that, to make this work, many organizations have to create separate policies for each tenant. This often creates an explosion of tenant policies which, in turn, can push the account limits ... Read More

Feed: Blog – ArangoDB. Author: Max Neunhöffer. Recently, we decided to investigate why our application ARANGOSYNC for synchronizing two ArangoDB clusters across data centers used up a lot of memory – around 2GB in certain cases. The environment contained ~1500 shards with 5000 GOroutines. Thanks to tools like pprof (to profile CPU and memory usage) it was very easy to identify the issue. The GO profiler showed us that memory was allocated in the function time.After() and it accumulated up to nearly 1GB. The memory was not released so it was clear that we had a memory leak. We will explain ... Read More
