[SR-Users] Connection to AWS services (e.g DynamoDB)

Hi Jakub

Although no direct experience with this exactly as you have described I have 
used HTTP API out of Kamailio quite a bit and into other services. Which yes 
some ultimatly end in AWS> Having done our's in KEMI there is some difference 
however from our experience we did notice some of this didn't fair well under a 
loads test scenario. We tested Kafka vs Kamailio HTTP API Modules vs Aiohttp 
(Python in Kemi) and Kafka significantly out perfomed in terms of the load 
test. We then had to rejig things to account for this instead of HTTP API. If 
this is ever going to be under intense load. Maybe make sure you do the load 
testing early on before you ratify your design. Also make sure all your error 
habndling is in place and working to prevent issues in Kamailio if something 
API side goes wrong.

[SR-Users] Connection to AWS services (e.g DynamoDB)

2023-08-04 Thread jakub . smadis
Hello,

I am researching how I could communicate from Kamailio (which runs on an AWS 
EC2 instance) with AWS services (e.g. DynamoDB) using HTTP API.
My Kamailio logic is written in Kamailio configuration files.

I would like to ask you if anyone has some experience with such a setup and if 
so how did you manage to connect it?

My current options are:
* HTTP connection to DynamoDB API with HTTP module
I would create a Python script that would generate signature headers for the 
[AWS API 
request](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/create-signed-request.html).
Then I would use the headers in the HTTP request.
(I am using the Kamailio module to keep the connection open to DynamoDB).

* Middleman service
Small service that provides HTTP API to Kamailio and manages the communication 
with DynamoDB.
Easiest solution but it's harder to maintain it in high availability mode.

* API gateway with VPC endpoint attached to the EC2
API gateway would be a proxy to DynamoDB and we would call the VPC endpoint 
from the Kamailio.
We would use resource policies to allow requests without auth through the VPC 
endpoint.


Any help or feedback would be valuable to me. 
Thank you very much!

Regards,
Jakub
