How to Scale AWS AppSync?

1

AWS AppSync has a 1,000 requests / second rate limit. I am looking for suggestions on how to scale AppSync without requesting a higher rate limit through AWS Support.

For example, could we have a load balancer that forward requests to 3 AppSync instances in the same region? Then we could potentially handle 3,000 requests / second per second?

Looking for other suggestions.

  • Why not request a higher rate limit?

    The benefit of using a serverless service like appsync is the fact that you do not have to provision resources to do the scaling.
