What it shows

  • S3 event notifications push metadata to SQS to decouple ingestion from compute.
  • AWS Batch provisions ECS Spot instances on demand, reducing cost by up to 90%.
  • Workers process files in parallel and flush results back to S3 automatically.

The takeaway

Event-driven orchestration paired with Spot compute eliminates idle spend for bulk processing.
