Using response streaming with AWS Lambda Web Adapter to optimize performance
Lambda response streaming can improve the TTFB for web pages. With the support of AWS Lambda Web Adapter, developers can more easily package web applications that support Lambda response streaming, enhancing the user experience and performance metrics of their web applications.
Automatically delete schedules upon completion with Amazon EventBridge Scheduler
Amazon EventBridge Scheduler now supports configuring automatic deletion of schedules after completion. Now you can configure one-time and recurring schedules with an end date to be automatically deleted upon completion to avoid managing individual schedules. Amazon EventBridge Scheduler allows you to create, run, and manage schedules on scale. Using EventBridge Scheduler, you can schedule millions […]
Python 3.11 runtime now available in AWS Lambda
You can build and deploy functions using Python 3.11 using the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, AWS SDK, AWS SAM, AWS CDK, or your choice of Infrastructure as Code (IaC). You can also use the Python 3.11 container base image if you prefer to build and deploy your functions using container images.
Migrating AWS Lambda functions from the Go1.x runtime to the custom runtime on Amazon Linux 2
Lambda is deprecating the go1.x runtime in line with Amazon Linux 1 end-of-life, scheduled for December 31, 2023. Customers using Go with Lambda should migrate their functions to the provided.al2 runtime. Benefits include support for AWS Graviton2 processors with better price-performance, and a streamlined invoke path with faster performance.
Implementing patterns that exit early out of a parallel state in AWS Step Functions
This blog post shows how you can implement patterns that must exit early out of a parallel state in an AWS Step Functions workflow.
Decoupling event publishing with Amazon EventBridge Pipes
When building event-driven applications, consider whether you can replace application code with serverless integration services to improve the resilience of your application and provide a clean separation between application logic and system dependencies.
Detecting and stopping recursive loops in AWS Lambda functions
This post is written by Pawan Puthran, Principal Serverless Specialist TAM, Aneel Murari, Senior Serverless Specialist Solution Architect, and Shree Shrikhande, Senior AWS Lambda Product Manager. AWS Lambda is announcing a recursion control to detect and stop Lambda functions running in a recursive or infinite loop. At launch, this feature is available for Lambda integrations […]
Understanding AWS Lambda’s invoke throttling limits
This blog explains three key throttle limits applied on Lambda invokes: the concurrency limit, TPS limit and burst limit. It outlines the relationship between these limits and how each one protects the system and your workload from noisy neighbors. Equipped with this knowledge you can better interpret any 429 throttling exceptions you may receive while scaling your applications on Lambda.
Validating attestation documents produced by AWS Nitro Enclaves
This blog post is written by Paco Gonzalez Senior EMEA IoT Specialist SA. AWS Nitro Enclaves offers an isolated, hardened, and highly constrained environment to host security-critical applications. Think of AWS Nitro Enclaves as regular Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) virtual machines (VMs) but with the added benefit of the environment being highly constrained. […]
Implementing AWS Lambda error handling patterns
This post is written by Jeff Chen, Principal Cloud Application Architect, and Jeff Li, Senior Cloud Application Architect Event-driven architectures are an architecture style that can help you boost agility and build reliable, scalable applications. Splitting an application into loosely coupled services can help each service scale independently. A distributed, loosely coupled application depends on […]
