If we have lambda functions running on AWS how to we translate the sizing requirement to an onpremise setup?

ChatGPT:
Translating sizing requirements from a cloud-based AWS Lambda setup to an on-premise setup requires considering multiple factors, including the amount of memory and CPU resources required by the functions, the number of requests they receive, and the size of the data they handle. Here are some steps to consider:

1. Determine resource requirements: Evaluate the memory and CPU utilization of the Lambda functions in the cloud setup to determine the minimum amount of memory and CPU needed in the on-premise setup.
2. Calculate request volume: Estimate the number of requests the Lambda functions receive, including the frequency and duration of each request. This information will help you determine the amount of resources needed to handle the request volume.
3. Consider data storage: If the Lambda functions access or store data, you will need to consider the size of the data and determine how it will be stored and accessed in the on-premise setup.
4. Select hardware: Based on the resource requirements and request volume, select the appropriate hardware to host the on-premise setup. Consider factors such as the number of CPU cores, amount of memory, and storage capacity.
5. Implement the on-premise setup: Once you have determined the hardware requirements, set up the on-premise environment, including the necessary software and network infrastructure.

It's important to note that cloud-based solutions like AWS Lambda can provide scalability and flexibility that may be difficult to achieve with an on-premise setup. Careful planning and ongoing monitoring of resource utilization will be crucial to ensuring that the on-premise setup can support the required load.

I I am asking about the number of vCPUs. lets consider we have 4000 API requests/sec and each request takes 1 sec to process at 512 mb.

ChatGPT:
To determine the number of vCPUs required for an on-premise setup that needs to handle 4000 API requests per second, with each request taking 1 second to process using 512 MB of memory, you need to consider the CPU utilization and memory requirements of the functions.

Here are some rough guidelines to estimate the number of vCPUs needed:

1. Memory utilization: Each vCPU can typically handle up to 2 GB of memory, so if each request uses 512 MB of memory, then you would need 2 vCPUs for every 1000 requests.
2. CPU utilization: To determine the CPU utilization, you would need to measure the CPU utilization of the functions in the cloud setup and estimate the equivalent utilization in the on-premise setup. If the utilization is high, then you may need to add more vCPUs to ensure that the functions can handle the load.

Based on the above considerations, you would need 8 vCPUs to handle the 4000 API requests per second with a 1 second processing time and 512 MB memory usage per request. However, this is just a rough estimate and actual requirements may vary based on other factors such as the complexity of the functions and the data they handle. It's important to monitor the performance of the on-premise setup and adjust the number of vCPUs as needed to ensure that it can handle the required load.
