This. I continue to hear about hacks of people running ping to keep a single instance warm. But that doesn't cover periodic changes in capacity needs nor spikes. I would think to avoid cold starts all together you'd need a pinger that sent exactly the load difference between peak load and current load. I would love to hear if anyone is keeping Lambdas warm at more than n=1 capacity. |

There are various ways to do it, but I feel that it's a very suboptimal solution, and it still won't guarentee no cold starts happen.
I've personally come to the conclusion, that lambda is very nice for anything non-latency sensitive. We are still using it to great effect for e.g. processing incoming IoT data samples, which can vary quite a lot, but only happens in the backend, and nobody will care if it's 1-2 seconds delayed.
