Building storage-first serverless applications with HTTP APIs service integrations

Over the last year, I have been talking about “storage first” serverless patterns. With these patterns, data is stored persistently before any business logic is applied. The advantage of this pattern is increased application resiliency. By persisting the data before processing, the original data is still available, if or when errors occur. Common pattern for […]

ICYMI: Season one of Sessions with SAM

February 12, 2024: Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose has been renamed to Amazon Data Firehose. Read the AWS What’s New post to learn more. Developers tell us they want to know how to easily build and manage their serverless applications. In 2017 AWS announced AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) to help with just that. To help […]

New AWS Lambda controls for stream processing and asynchronous invocations

Today AWS Lambda is introducing new controls for asynchronous and stream processing invocations. These new features allow you to customize responses to Lambda function errors and build more resilient event-driven and stream-processing applications. Stream processing function invocations When processing data from event sources such as Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, and Amazon DynamoDB Streams, Lambda reads […]

Configuring the Parallelization Factor from the AWS Lambda console.

New AWS Lambda scaling controls for Kinesis and DynamoDB event sources

AWS Lambda is introducing a new scaling parameter for Amazon Kinesis Data Streams and Amazon DynamoDB Streams event sources. Parallelization Factor can be set to increase concurrent Lambda invocations for each shard, which by default is 1. This allows for faster stream processing without the need to over-scale the number of shards, while still guaranteeing […]

Visualizing Sensor Data in Amazon QuickSight

This post is courtesy of Moheeb Zara, Developer Advocate, AWS Serverless The Internet of Things (IoT) is a term used wherever physical devices are networked in some meaningful connected way. Often, this takes the form of sensor data collection and analysis. As the number of devices and size of data scales, it can become costly […]
