N-tier architecture• Synchronous communication

• Blocking– Lower throughput

– Hardware under-utilization and higher costs

• Tightly coupled– Location dependent

– Difficult to extend and maintain

• Blocking

• Pull-based

Change is inevitable• Users

– Demands richer experiences

– Expects super fast response time

• Applications

– Need to scale-on-demand

– Always-On

– Real-time

• Business

– Need to react to these changing requirements

Traditional Style of applications

cannot deliver on these

requirements any longer

Reactive architecture• Asynchronous message passing

• Non-blocking– Higher throughput

– Effective hardware utilization and lower costs

• Loosely coupled– Location independent

– Easy to extend and maintain

• Push-based

AWS for Reactive Applications• Responsive

– Amazon EC2 (Websocket

Server)

– Amazon SNS

• Elastic– Elastic Load Balancing

– Auto Scaling

– Elastic Beanstalk

– Amazon DynamoDB

• Resilient– Availability Zones

– Amazon Route 53

– Auto Scaling

– Amazon VPC

– DynamoDB

• Message Driven– Amazon SQS

– Amazon SWF

Let's build a reactive application

Goals• React to Users

• React to Requests

• React to Load

• React to Failures

Elastic Resilient

Message-driven• Enables loose coupling

• Enables location independent components

• Designed to provide high durability

• At least once delivery

• Timeouts to manage failure

Message to Tasks – Amazon SWF Responsive

Elastic Resilient

Message-driven• Task based programming models

• Run application workflows

• Asynchronous invocation

• Coordinate distributed application processing

• Ordered execution of application steps

• At most once delivery

• Reliable and auditable

DynamoDB- overviewResponsive

Elastic Beanstalk - overview

• Fast and Simple way to deploy apps

• Makes development process productive

• Provides Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing

out of the box

• Complete resource control

• Free!! Pay only for resources used
