Benchmarking Lambda cold starts

Abstract:

Want to understand and minimize Lambda coldstarts?

Maxime David, Serverless Software Engineer at Datadog and AWS Community Builder, joins Julian Wood to go deep into cold start benchmarks.

You may have read blog posts about coldstart benchmarks but unfortunately those are likely to be outdated. See how Maxime created a project to gather Lambda coldstarts across all runtimes.

The report runs daily and compares and visualizes coldstart performance. You can see how Lambda optimizes cold starts over time.
