Hey! We launched a small but mighty library called AWS Integrated Application Test Kit to make integration testing easier for event-driven apps. It's in preview, and we would love your feedback on this! https://t.co/gmn9A7aqlD blogpost - https://t.co/gmn9A7aqlD #eventbridge

Looking forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!

I took some time to organize my thoughts on Serverless, and wrote an article. This is the first time I've been able to fully express why I think Serverless is the future.

When the shoulders of giants are offered, you'd do well to stand on them.

Recognition is like a dog’s own tail. It can get dizzy chasing and is not sustainable. Go on about learning, applying, and genuinely helping others, and many things including recognition, slowly but surely, will quietly follow.

I've used this pattern before without knowing it has a name, now I know!

It also reminds me of the "roll-up events" that @sheenbrisals talked about, which is the reverse of this - a summary event that comes after the individual events.

[Luc van Donkersgoed @donkersgood]

I'm sad to report that the PostNL Event Broker project I'm responsible for has broken its two-year streak of no production incidents.

In fact we failed to deliver about 40k events, and *did not even notice* until a customer told us 3 days later.

So let's learn from it.

Haven’t found a leader or role model you longed yet?

Consider becoming that person and be there for others.

New Post!

AWS Lambda can pre-warm your functions to reduce the number of cold starts, even when used on-demand!

This post defines Proactive Initialization, compares benchmarks from multiple runtimes/workloads, and shows you how to measure this in your own functions!
