How we got our AWS bill to around 2% of revenue

Since they are serving about 250 requests per second, Lambdas might end up being more expensive, factor in an expensive DynamoDB and that monthly AWS bill looks scary.

Hello, author here. I just want to confirm that this is one of the reasons why we did not go with Lambda and the other reason being I was not fully aware of and versed with serverless when we started this venture

I’m thinking otherwise. If the payloads are small, DynamoDB is going to be cheaper and nothing will come close to the savings from Lambda compute.
