Testing AWS Lambda functions with AWS SAM remote invoke
Serverless developers are looking for the most efficient way to test their applications in the AWS Cloud. They want to invoke an AWS Lambda function quickly without having to mock security, external services, or other environment variables. This blog shows how to use the new AWS SAM remote invoke feature to do just that.
Implementing cross-account CI/CD with AWS SAM for container-based Lambda functions
Containerized applications often have several distinct environments and accounts, such as dev, test, and prod. An application has to go through a process of deployment and testing in these environments. One common pattern for deploying containerized applications is to have a central AWS create a single container image, and carry out deployment across other AWS accounts. To achieve automated deployment of the application across different environments, customers use CI/CD pipelines with familiar container tooling. This blog post explores how to use AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) Pipelines to create a CI/CD deployment pipeline and deploy a container-based Lambda function across multiple accounts.
Implementing error handling for AWS Lambda asynchronous invocations
This blog is written by Poornima Chand, Senior Solutions Architect, Strategic Accounts and Giedrius Praspaliauskas, Senior Solutions Architect, Serverless. AWS Lambda functions allow both synchronous and asynchronous invocations, which both have different function behaviors and error handling: When you invoke a function synchronously, Lambda returns any unhandled errors in the function code back to the […]

Building serverless Java applications with the AWS SAM CLI
This blog post shows how to build Java applications with the AWS SAM CLI. You learnt about the default build mechanisms, and how to customize the build behavior and abstract the build process inside a container environment. Visit the GitHub repository for the example code templates referenced in the examples.
Introducing AWS Lambda Powertools for .NET
CloudWatch and AWS X-Ray offer functionality that provides comprehensive observability for your applications. Lambda Powertools .NET is now generally available. The library helps implement observability when running Lambda functions based on .NET 6 while reducing the amount of custom code.
Securing CI/CD pipelines with AWS SAM Pipelines and OIDC
AWS SAM Pipeline support for OIDC is a new feature of AWS SAM CLI that simplifies the integration of CI/CD pipelines hosted outside of AWS. Using short-term credentials and scoping AWS actions to specific pipeline tasks reduces risk for your organization.
