Running cross-account workflows with AWS Step Functions and Amazon API Gateway
This blog post provides a step-by-step guide on securely invoking a cross-account Step Functions workflow from a central account using API Gateway as front end. This pattern can be extended to scale workflow executions across different Regions and accounts.
Implementing mutual TLS for Java-based AWS Lambda functions
This post is written by Dhiraj Mahapatro, Senior Specialist SA, Serverless and Christian Mueller, Principal Solutions Architect Modern secure applications establish network connections to other services through HTTPS. This ensures that the application connects to the right party and encrypts the data before sending it over the network. You might not want unauthenticated users to […]
Building serverless multi-Region WebSocket APIs
This blog post shows how to use the AWS serverless platform to build a multi-regional chat application over WebSockets. With the cross-Region event routing of EventBridge the architecture is resilient as well as extensible.
Composing AWS Step Functions to abstract polling of asynchronous services
This blog post describes how to compose a nested Step Functions workflow, which asynchronously manages a custom service using the polling mechanism.
Building a serverless image catalog with AWS Step Functions Workflow Studio
This blog post demonstrates how to implement a serverless image cataloging pipeline using Step Functions Workflow Studio. By orchestrating AWS API actions and flow states via drag and drop, you can process user-generated images. This example checks images for appropriateness and generates tags based on their content without custom application code.
Migrating a monolithic .NET REST API to AWS Lambda
This blog post shows the required considerations for migrating a .NET Core REST API to AWS Lambda. You can now start to look at your existing code base and make an informed decision whether Lambda is for you. With the right abstractions and configuration, you can migrate a .NET Core API to Lambda compute with copy and paste.
Capturing client events using Amazon API Gateway and Amazon EventBridge
This post shows how to send client events to an API and EventBridge to enable new customer experiences. The example covers enabling new experiences by creating a way for software clients to send events with minimal custom code.
Mocking service integrations with AWS Step Functions Local
This post is written by Sam Dengler, Principal Specialist Solutions Architect, and Dhiraj Mahapatro, Senior Specialist Solutions Architect. AWS Step Functions now supports over 200 AWS Service integrations via AWS SDK Integration.
