Preview the Python Serverless Microframework for AWS

Serverless computing is one of the most talked-about subjects among AWS customers. The AWS serverless offerings, AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway, make it possible for developers to create and run API applications with built-in, virtually unlimited scalability without managing any servers. Today the AWS Developer Tools team is excited to announce the preview of […]

AWS SDK for C++ Now Available via. NuGet

C++ has long suffered from the lack of good dependency management solutions. For .NET development, NuGet is one of the most commonly used tools. NuGet solves each of these problems for the Visual Studio C++ development environment: Native Windows developers often have to build against multiple Visual C++ runtimes. Companies often need to distribute flavors […]

Parallelizing Large Downloads for Optimal Speed

TransferManager now supports a feature that parallelizes large downloads from Amazon S3. You do not need to change your code to use this feature. You only need to upgrade the AWS SDK for Java to version 1.11.0 or later. When you download a file using TransferManager, the utility automatically determines if the object is multipart. If so, […]

Creating Lambda Stream Functions Using the AWS Toolkit for Eclipse

In this blog post, I will introduce two new features in the AWS Toolkit for Eclipse: creating an AWS Lambda stream function and creating multiple AWS Lambda functions in a single project. Unlike the normal AWS Lambda functions which take in POJOs for handler Input/Output, the AWS Lambda stream functions let you use the InputStream and OutputStream […]

Using Custom Request Handlers

Requests are the core of the Go SDK. They handle the network request to a specific service. When you call a service method in the AWS SDK for Go, the SDK creates a request object that contains the input parameters and request lifecycle handlers. The logic involved in each step of a request’s lifecycle, such […]

Symmetric Encryption/Decryption in the AWS SDK for C++ with std::iostream

Cryptography is hard in any programming language. It is especially difficult in platform-portable native code where we don’t have the advantage of a constant platform implementation. Many customers have asked us for an Amazon S3 encryption client that is compatible with the Java and Ruby clients. Although we are not ready to release that yet, […]

Version 3.1.73.0 of the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell and AWS SDK for .NET (AWSSDK.Core version 3.1.6.0),  released today, contain enhancements to the way credentials and region data can be supplied to your SDK applications and PowerShell scripts, including the ability to use SAML federated credentials in your SDK applications. We’ve also refactored support for […]
