Lambda functions have a 15 minute timeout, this limits our processing capabilities.<ol type=\"a\"><li class=\"blog-p\">Export job &#8211; Exports the forecast file to S3. i.e., a single file can have 8K records. So, we had to split the files with 300 (any small number based on your business requirement. i.e., how much data can be processed in 15 min) records each and processes the forecast file and saves it to dynamodb. We use dynamodb as it uses unstructured data, similar to the JSON schema we use in the dataset.<\/li><\/ol><\/li><li class=\"blog-p\">Keep a tab on the AWS cost when you are building and testing your solution. In our case we overlooked a bug in the code checking the status and creating triggers and updating dynamodb. This bug resulted in making a large number of troubleshooting calls and hence our AWS cost shot up during our testing. It is key to ensure your dataset has no errors, and that you choose the appropriate models and trainers as well.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
