Scaling Sidekiq Elastically

question 2 connections

Audience question comparing Sidekiq scaling to AWS Lambda's behavior of killing idle containers and spinning up new ones during spikes. Paweł said he has always scaled by running multiple Sidekiq instances and multiple Redis instances rather than using Lambda, and that the right approach depends on the nature of the data (uniqueness/conflict concerns). He did not have a universal answer.

answer_summary
Paweł uses multiple Sidekiq/Redis instances; right approach depends on data uniqueness and the specific case.
