Multicloud is a joke and I'm sorry your upper management got pilled by someone selling something.

Last time I tried to use amplify it was broken AF and most of my issues were bugs (memory leaks were a big one) that the dev discord (your only way of interacting with them) was not interested in fixing. At the time the only way I got engagement was by harassing the oncall via slack internally.

So I wouldn't recommend that product at all however if you're stuck with it that's something else entirely.

Not sure this is the right thread for this.

I’m interested in email SaaS architecture, but this seems to be one of those things that’s difficult to Google for. As in, how Sendgrid, Mailchimp, Mailgun, Amazon SES, etc work.

Im guessing there’s a DNS part, scalable vms hosting SMTP (just guessing) part, and an orchestration part. Among other more general saas things (api, auth services, whatever)

Anyways any insights (general or implementation specific) would be appreciated. Again, I’m finding it hard to do basic research on this so any info is appreciated.

Are you trying to roll your own? Curious what your use case for this is as I imagine the arch is probably not going to be super public necessarily as I work at one of the 4 you listed presently and worked at another previously.

Is there a recommended way to execute intense/long running queries against an Aurora RDS cluster without impacting the cluster itself? When we did self hosted MySQL on EC2 we just booted a new box in the same vpc but just left it out of the load balancer.

Create a read replica and then run the query there

I realized after reading the docs how trivial my question is. Thanks!

Does anyone have resources for testing and upgrading from AL1 to AL23?

I can also ask in the Linux thread but I'm confused as to why the internet seems really lacking on this subject. I get AWS would want you to think it just works but that feels naive.

Are you talking about like building a new environment on AL2023 and what pitfalls you will encounter deploying your app that has been running on AL1 to it? Or trying to upgrade in place via yum or something? AL1 is ancient (in cloud terms), I would be surprised if the latter is even possible. I think AWS would tell you to build new AMIs and new hosts and cut over. AWS is not pet friendly.

This would be deploying existing code to new al23 hosts.
