Overview:

Our DAX got latent and context started getting deadline exceeded. Below is the message which we were logging in our server:
error ddb/de_entity_generic_get.go:99 couldn't get item {"id": "b1ace8e8-7f7a-4e44-af2a-4a4378ee1816", "table": "de-entity-map", "pk": "********", "sk": "********", "error": "RequestCanceled: request context canceled\ncaused by: context deadline exceeded”}

Breaking down the error log:

  1. context deadline exceeded - This is received from DAX server
  2. RequestCanceled: request context canceled - This is generated by aws-dax-go client.

We can see that the error log is misleading.

Description of changes:

ctx.Err() can return either Canceled or DeadlineExceeded, generating error message based on the error type.

if err == context.Canceled {
return awserr.New(request.CanceledErrorCode, "request context canceled", err)
} else if err == context.DeadlineExceeded {
return awserr.New(request.CanceledErrorCode, "request context deadline exceeded", err)

Have to change from CanceledErrorCode -> DeadlineExceededErrorCode but aws-sdk-go went in maintenace mode and aws-sdk-go-v2 handles error differently
