The database, and execute your query. a cold start and therefore affect the impact that using a database with a database has on a cold start for your application. Embarrassingly we noticed that we had completed the first few tests using serverless functions in and instances hosted in . We fixed this quickly and after measurements clearly showed the huge impact this could have on database latency, both for creating the connection and for any queries being executed. The database is in the same area as the function. Using a database that is not too close to your function will Directly increasing the duration of a cold start but incurring the same cost when executing the query later during hot requests will also incur. Optimizing Internal Architecture Building In the diagram shown earlier you may have noticed that only two of the three sections on the Internal column are directly related to the database. Another partial pattern generator.

Shown in cyan is not. This shows us that this segment is an area for improvement. The database is located in the same area as the function. The segment of the green bar repres photo editing servies ents the time it takes to run its function to establish a connection with the database. The segment is divided into two blocks in the inner column, cyan and light red. The light red segment represents the time spent actually creating the database connection and the cyan segment shows the time spent by the query engine reading your schema and then using it to generate the schema used to validate incoming client queries. The way these projects were generated previously was not as optimized as it should be. To shorten this section we addressed the performance issues found there. More specifically we found a way to remove an expensive piece of code that converts the internal schema when.



Starting the query engine before building the query schema. We also now lazily generate strings for many type names in query patterns. This made a significant difference. In addition to this change we also found ways to optimize the code in the architecture generator to improve memory layout resulting in a significant performance runtime improvement. NOTE If you are interested in the specific details of the memory allocation related fixes we made please take a look at the following example pull request. The previous request after applying these changes is shown below with Schema Builder enhancements. Notice the cyan segments are significantly shortened. This is a huge win but there are still cyan segments out there which means time is spent doing things that have nothing to do with the database. We've identified potential enhancements that will bring the segment close to, if not completely down to, zero. Various Small Victories Along .
