Tournament of Albums
Obviously, it is extremely important that I be able to rank all the albums in my music collection, but I have found it is too difficult to rank them all at once. This is my attempt to do it piecemeal, in small batches, with scores aggregated by applying my highly scientific probabilistic model.
The Tournament of Albums consists of three parts:
- A static web app, served from S3 and CloudFront.
- A read-only API, with one Lambda per endpoint.
- A data pipeline that picks up new match results, applies the model, and writes the scores to DynamoDB for the API to serve.
