Achieving multi-region reliability with AWS Step Functions and Fauna

Using legacy technologies, deploying applications with multi-region distribution is costly and complex. With Fauna and AWS solutions like Step Functions, Lambda, API Gateway, and CloudFormation, you will gain an understanding of how to do so over the course of a short blog post. Fauna partnered with the team at AWS to highlight the ease of running your application in multiple AWS regions, and how Fauna simplifies storing and retrieving data across those regions. While AWS offers a suite of robust cloud orchestration tools and compute infrastructure, Fauna delivers the strong consistency and ACID transactions of a relational database with the performance and flexibility you expect from a document database — ultimately simplifying the process of building performant multi-region applications. Fauna is distributed by default (either in a single region or globally), leading to natural alignment with global workloads built on AWS.
