Introducing an enhanced in-console editing experience for AWS Lambda
AWS Lambda is introducing a new code editing experience in the AWS console based on the popular Code-OSS, Visual Studio Code Open Source code editor. This brings the familiar Visual Studio Code interface and many of the features directly into the Lambda console, allowing developers to use their preferred coding environment and tools in the cloud. […]
AWS Lambda introduces recursive loop detection APIs
This post is written by James Ngai, Senior Product Manager, AWS Lambda, and Aneel Murari, Senior Specialist SA, Serverless. Today, AWS Lambda is announcing new recursive loop detection APIs that allow you to set recursive loop detection configuration on individual Lambda functions. This allows you to turn off recursive loop detection on functions that intentionally use […]

Securing Amazon ECS workloads on AWS Fargate with customer managed keys
As Amazon CTO Werner Vogels said, “Encryption is the tool we have to make sure that nobody else has access to your data. Amazon Web Services (AWS) built encryption into nearly all of its 165 cloud services. Make use of it. Dance like nobody is watching. Encrypt like everyone is.” Security is the top priority […]
Using the circuit-breaker pattern with AWS Lambda extensions and Amazon DynamoDB
The circuit breaker pattern is a powerful tool for helping to ensure the resiliency and stability of serverless applications. Lambda extensions are a good fit for its implementation, as demonstrated in this example.
Running code after returning a response from an AWS Lambda function
This blog shows four ways of combining synchronous and asynchronous tasks in a Lambda function, allowing you to run tasks that continue running after the function returns a response to the client.
Accelerating workflow development with the TestState API in AWS Step Functions
The TestState API helps developers to iterate faster, resolve issues efficiently, and deliver high-quality applications with greater confidence. By enabling developers to test individual states independently and integrating testing into their preferred development workflows, it simplifies the debugging process and reduces context switches.

Automating chaos experiments with AWS Fault Injection Service and AWS Lambda
This blog post details how to run chaos experiments for serverless applications built using Lambda. The described approach uses Lambda extension to inject faults into the execution environment. This allows you to use the same method regardless of runtime or configuration of the Lambda function.
Sending and receiving CloudEvents with Amazon EventBridge
Amazon EventBridge helps developers build event-driven architectures (EDA) by connecting loosely coupled publishers and consumers using event routing, filtering, and transformation. CloudEvents is an open-source specification for describing event data in a common way. Developers can publish CloudEvents directly to EventBridge, filter and route them, and use input transformers and API Destinations to send CloudEvents […]
