On November 27, we announced that AWS Lambda now includes additional attributes in the function information returned by several Lambda API actions to better communicate the current “state” of your function, when they are being created or updated. In our post “Tracking the state of AWS Lambda functions”, we covered the various states your Lambda […]

Amazon API Gateway helps developers easily create, publish, and maintain secure APIs at any scale.  API Gateway handles all of the heavy lifting of managing thousands of API calls.  There are no minimum fees and you only pay for the API calls you receive. Announcing the API Gateway HTTP API We talk to customers every day that […]

Since the launch of AWS Lambda five years ago, thousands of customers such as iRobot, Fender, and Expedia have experienced the benefits of the serverless operational model. Being able to spend less time on managing scaling and availability, builders are increasingly using serverless for more sophisticated workloads with more exacting latency requirements. As customers have […]

Update – June 30, 2020: Amazon RDS Proxy support for MySQL and PostgreSQL is now generally available. Update – April 8, 2020: We have announced Postgres compatibility with the Amazon RDS Proxy. Version 10.11 and 11.5 are supported in the preview. The AWS Serverless platform allows you to build applications that automatically scale in response to demand. […]

Today, AWS announces the preview of Amazon EventBridge schema registry and discovery. These are new developer tool features, which allow you to automatically find events and their structure, or schema, and store them in a shared central location. This makes it faster and easier to build event-driven applications. You can access the registry and generate […]

With Contributions from Chris Munns – Sr Manager – Developer Advocacy – AWS Serverless The last two weeks have been a frenzy of AWS service and feature launches, building up to AWS re:Invent 2019. As there has been a lot announced we thought we’d ship an ICYMI post summarizing the serverless service specific features that […]

AWS Lambda functions often require resources from other AWS services in order to execute successfully, such as AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles or Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) network interfaces. When you create or update a function, Lambda provisions the required resources on your behalf that enable your function to execute. In […]

Since its launch in February 2018, the AWS Serverless Application Repository (SAR) has become a rich library of components and serverless applications for builders. SAR allows developers to share these applications privately within their own accounts, or publicly with a broader audience. Today, we are excited to announce that SAR authors can now apply for […]

The AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) CLI provides developers with a local tool for managing serverless applications on AWS. The command line tool allows developers to initialize and configure applications, debug locally using IDEs like Visual Studio Code or JetBrains WebStorm, and deploy to the AWS Cloud. On November 25, we announced improvements to the […]

Today we’re announcing AWS Lambda Destinations for asynchronous invocations. This is a feature that provides visibility into Lambda function invocations and routes the execution results to AWS services, simplifying event-driven applications and reducing code complexity. Asynchronous invocations When a function is invoked asynchronously, Lambda sends the event to an internal queue. A separate process reads […]
