Understanding database options for your serverless web applications
Web developers commonly use relational databases in building their applications. When migrating to serverless architectures, a web developer can continue to use databases like RDS, or take advantage of other options available.
Building well-architected serverless applications: Controlling serverless API access – part 3
This series of blog posts uses the AWS Well-Architected Tool with the Serverless Lens to help customers build and operate applications using best practices. In each post, I address the nine serverless-specific questions identified by the Serverless Lens along with the recommended best practices. See the Introduction post for a table of contents and explanation of the example application. Security question […]

Replacing web server functionality with serverless services
I show how traditional web-server applications compare with their serverless counterparts. I show how the infrastructure is managed for you in serverless, and how code for serverless developers in primarily focused on business logic.
Building deep learning inference with AWS Lambda and Amazon EFS
This post shows how you can use EFS for Lambda to deploy large DL libraries and models into a function for synchronous invocations.
The AWS Serverless Application Model CLI is now generally available
The AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) is an open-source framework for building serverless applications. Built on AWS CloudFormation, AWS SAM provides shorthand syntax to declare serverless resources. During deployment, AWS SAM transforms the serverless resources into CloudFormation syntax, enabling you to build serverless applications faster. As a companion to AWS SAM, the AWS SAM […]
Modeling business logic flows in serverless applications
Serverless applications can help you develop more agile applications that can scale automatically. By using serverless services in your architecture, this reduces the amount of boilerplate code. It also helps offload complex tasks to specialized services. As a result, a well-designed serverless application can be modified easily to deliver new feature requests, while maintaining high […]
