On July 15, 2021, AWS Lambda will deprecate Python 2.7 as a supported runtime, formally ending our Python 2.7 support.

This post explains common integration errors in Lambda-based applications. These include running an unintended version or alias of a function, triggering infinite loops unintentionally, and issues with downstream availability. In each case, I explain steps you can take to remediate the issue.

This post discusses a fully serverless architecture for searching images based on their contents. It shows how this architecture is decoupled and stateless by using S3 events, SQS messages, an EventBridge bus, and Amazon Aurora Serverless.

This is the second post in a series on debugging Lambda-based applications. This post shows how to identify and resolve memory and CPU-bound functions, and how to understand and use timeouts effectively in production applications.

In this blog post, you learn how to use AWS Step Functions and parallel processing to complete four hours of work in 60 seconds. You learn how to apply the pattern of decomposition to achieve improved scalability and manageability.

This post shows how to create, build, and package a C# Lambda extension as a single binary file. Explore the example code and other Lambda extensions examples in the GitHub repository.

Debugging serverless applications is different to debugging single-server or monolithic applications. You must consider debugging across multiple invocations and services, and understanding the state of a distributed workload.

The API destinations feature of EventBridge enables developers to integrate workloads with third-party applications using REST API calls. This provides an easier way to build decoupled, extensible applications that work with applications outside of the AWS Cloud.

This post is written by Shashi Shankar, Application Architect, Shared Delivery Teams Freshdesk is an omnichannel customer service platform by Freshworks. It provides automation services to help speed up customer support processes. The Freshworks connector to Amazon EventBridge allows real time streaming of Freshdesk events with minimal configuration and setup. This integration provides real-time insights […]

X-Ray is a powerful tool for providing observability in serverless applications. With the launch of X-Ray passive tracing in EventBridge, this allows you to trace requests across distributed applications more easily.
