I dont have great numbers here for you, since I just test it every few hours on DEV

TL;DR
Cloud function regularly goes down for developers - one function specifically keeps getting 500 errors. Other functions work fine, but this one has frequent issues. It intermittently fails, but no clear pattern. Running on 4 CPUs, 4GB RAM with basic tasks like HTTP calls, JSON parsing, etc. There's an issue being worked on by the team, so the developer may need to wait for a fix.

how many 500 do you see recently? even a rough number will do

Every execute - so if I use our auto-complete tool (it sends 1x API call after you stop typing in an editor for >500ms), I might have 50x of those 500 errors in a span of 2 minutes

And randomly: it works now again

cool, got it. I do see one issue on our error logs, but its related to an edge case we're already working on a fix for and it only happened one time last 24h. I'll get in touch with our serverless team to dive deeper into the logs. Can you tell if this specific function is doing more intensive work cpu/memory wise?

<@269618154001399808> did you try increasing cpu and memory to see if this issue persist?

The function orchestrates a bunch of API calls - but its nothing too heavy I would say.

main tasks I believe are:

HTTP request/response processing JSON parsing Basic string operations Database queries

The function is running on 4x CPU and 4GB RAM

More than happy to help you - We really want to make appwrite functions work and we would kill for 100% stability

for sure, we're making this a high priority issue for the serverless engineers RN - I'll make sure they reach out if they need to.

@circuit6 btw, do you have and error logs you can share from the 500 requests?

circuit6

No - the Executions do not show in the Console-UI

We flagged this exact issue with @Steven last week too

Seems like a lot of people have the functions not running

@circuit6 we added some better logging to our systems, if you can try and reproduce the errors now we might be able to get better visibility.

Will add Details, as soon as we got them
