This post is written by Doug Toppin, Software Development Engineer, and Kishore Dhamodaran, Solutions Architect. In public speaking, filler phrases can distract the audience and reduce the value and impact of what you are telling them. Reviewing recordings of presentations can be helpful to determine whether presenters are using filler phrases. Instead of manually reviewing […]

This blog post is written by Justin Callison, General Manager, AWS Workflow. Organizations generate terabytes of data every day in a variety of semistructured formats. AWS Glue and Amazon Athena can give you a simpler and more cost-effective way to analyze this data with no infrastructure to manage. AWS Glue crawlers identify the schema of […]

Event-driven architectures and EventBridge can help you accelerate feature velocity and build scalable, fault tolerant applications. This post demonstrates how to send EventBridge events to a private endpoint in a VPC using a Lambda function to relay events and emit response events. 

This post covers the API Gateway usage plan feature to protect multi-tenant APIs from excessive request loads and also as a product offering that enforces customer specific usage quotas.

This blog post explores how to integrate Amazon AppFlow and AWS Glue using Step Functions to automate your business requirements. You can use AWS Lambda to simplify the configuration phase and reduce state transitions or create complex checks, filters, or even data cleansing and preparation.

This post expands on the functionality introduced with the PowerShell custom runtime for AWS Lambda. The previous blog explains how the custom runtime approach makes it easier to run Lambda functions written in PowerShell. You can add additional functionality to your PowerShell serverless applications by importing PowerShell modules, which are shareable packages of code. Build your own […]

Cost optimization is an important part of creating well-architected solutions and this is no different when using serverless. This blog series explores some best practice techniques to help reduce your Lambda bill.

This blog post explains how Lambda pricing works and how right-sizing applications and tuning them for performance efficiency offers a more cost-efficient utilization model. The results can also reduce latency, creating a better experience for your end users.

This blog post outlines how to use Step Functions, Lambda, SQS, DynamoDB, and S3 to create a workflow that automates the testing of EventBridge events. With this example, you can send events to the EventBridge Event Tester endpoint to verify that event delivery is successful or identify the root cause for event delivery failures.

This post written by Giedrius Praspaliauskas, Senior Solutions Architect, Serverless. Modern architectures meet recovery objectives (recovery time objective, RTO, and recovery point objective, RPO) by being resilient to routine and unexpected infrastructure disruptions. Depending on the recovery objectives and regulatory requirements, developers must choose the disaster recovery strategy. For more on disaster recovery strategies, see […]
