Comment on Ask HN: Did you change your software architecture due to monetary constraints?

Comments

In my personal application I use dynamic dispatch pattern to receive and process all micro services from a single function. I use web sockets now but before that I standardized on a single object shape using HTTP POST for everything. One way of doing everything that always worked to a single location.

I am trying to convince another party to follow that example because they have exceeded their service end point quota on AWS.

In that same application I came to the conclusion that HTTP was too expensive to maintain for various technical reasons specific to the project. I switched to web sockets for everything, which was very challenging, but it completely paid for itself.
