Happy New Year! 🎇 Looking forward to a great 2025! Reflecting on learning, books, and travel in 2024: emshea.com/post/2024-in...

I always leave #AWSre:Invent feeling energized! It’s such a great week getting the product launches and session content that we’ve been hard at work on all year in the hands of customers.

Continuing with the theme of "right tool for the right job," my second re:Invent session this week was on deploying AWS serverless services with Kubernetes APIs! ☸️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmJG...

In the flurry of #reinvent announcements, you may have missed two awesome features I had the honor of working on with my team: CloudWatch’s Explore related telemetry and AWS Resource Explorer Relationships 🧵

The theme of both my #AWSre:Invent talks this year has been "right tool for the right job" 🛠️ Max and my talk on choosing containers or serverless functions takes you through: 1/ The fundamental differences in containers and serverless functions... www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUXZ...

This is one of the BIGGEST changes to AWS networking in years! You can now share single resources over PrivateLink AND access these resources with Step Functions and EventBridge. Really powerful.

#AWSreinvent Day 1! 🚀 I got lucky with both of my breakout sessions on Monday, including this one on choosing containers or serverless functions (or both!)

EventBridge and Step Functions + private APIs! 🚀 Particularly excited about this one and what it opens up for building event driven flows between applications, no matter where they are! I also appreciate that it renders my workaround blog post on this topic obsolete! 😄

Calling all Amazon ECS developers that are going to be at reInvent! Let me buy you breakfast! The ECS team is looking to have a sit down and learn about how you develop on ECS. We want to know what is working and what needs improvement. DM me if you are interested and I'll get you an invitation!

Here are the biggest pre:Invent serverless announcements so far and my thoughts on them, why they are important, pitfalls to look out for, etc. theburningmonk.com/2024/11/best...

If you didn't catch it before, AWS Step Functions now supports #JSONata for querying data in states. Learn more: youtu.be/kVWxJoO_zc8?...

New video: Domain Driven Design (DDD) explained in 3 minutes So often, a "bounded context" is (mis)used to mean a "service". I hope this video clears things up!

Want to discover #serverless and application integration things at #reInvent? See our handy guide. Sessions and where to find parties included!

Wow, SnapStart is now available for Python and .Net functions. Interesting they didn't do it for Node, I guess it's not about popularity, there must be something about Node that doesn't work well with SnapStart 🤔 aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aw...

Excited for this re:Invent talk on one of my favorite topics - bringing together the best of AWS serverless and Kubernetes! ☸️ Christina, Giedrius, and I will share how we're seeing platform teams enable developers to deploy serverless applications using Kubernetes APIs and tools.

In case you're looking for serverless people on here, I made a starter pack for you. go.bsky.app/PmjTiyJ

medium.com/@gabrielsoll... Using Github Actions & workflows for your CI/CD pipelines and automation tasks is a great idea. (1/3) 🧵

🚀 Issue 11 of the Serverless Advocate Newsletter is out now! This week, our Serverless expert of the week is Darryl Ruggles, and our spotlight falls on AWS DevTools Hero Matthew Bonig! 🎉 serverlessadvocate.substack.com/p/11-happy-1... #AWS #Serverless

New blog post on ten years of AWS Lambda, and some thoughts on the Lambda PRFAQ: brooker.co.za/blog/2024/11...

Hello 🦋 Happy to see many familiar faces around. Wasn't easy to find all of you (I probably missed many), so I created a starter pack to make it easier to (re)connect and nerd out about distributed systems, programming languages, and container stuff. Let me know who I missed! go.bsky.app/U1hZhum

This week, Lambda & ECS are celebrating 10 years! 🥳 I spoke about what building serverless means in 2024 at mine and Tom Collins's Serverless Days Cardiff keynote: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJU0...

We love to talk about new features, but it’s awesome to share work on what we call fundamentals. Enormous amount of passion and engineering innovation to drive these #eventbridge latency improvements that open up more use cases for #eventdrivenarchitectures on #aws ! aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...

🚀🎂🔟Happy 10th Birthday AWS Lambda! One of the most impactful cloud services was announced by @jeff-barr.com and @werner.social today in 2014! The event-driven model became the start of #serverless.

Excited to see the mass move to Bluesky! 🦋 Starter packs are awesome.

Ever questioned how much info you should pack in your events? Here are the pros & cons of each approach, and when to use which. theburningmonk.com/2024/11/when...

Most of you won't use this. Some of you won't use Lambda without this. Lambda now supports CMKs for encrypting zip artefacts. aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...

This week, we celebrate 10 years of ECS & Lambda! Join @edjgeek.bsky.social and me on #Serverless Office Hours tomorrow. We talk to Jeff Barr, Ajay Nair, Nick Coult, Usman Khalid, Malcolm Featonby and MORE about the past, present, and future of ECS and Lambda! youtube.com/live/AJaJk9I...

First blog post of 2024! 📝 Looking back at 2023, and sharing my top 3 learnings from 7 years at Amazon and 1 year as a manager. Happy New Year all! 💫 emshea.com/post/2023-in...

Using partyrock.aws to test out a potential new feature for my Chinese language learning app: AI-generated example sentences 🧠 It is mindblowingly quick to test out ideas and iterate on prompts!

Newly updated for 2023: My blog post on getting started with AWS serverless! ⚡ I’ve curated the Skill Builder courses, Serverless Land patterns, and example projects of my own to share with anyone that is just starting out building serverless applications. emshea.com/post/serverl...
