In part 2 of this blog post series, we show how to set up a project in Amazon CodeCatalyst and collaborate on the coding, building, testing, and deployment of .NET serverless applications in your AWS environments. Consider reviewing the first post, which introduced CodeCatalyst. It explains the compute fleet options that are available for your […]

In this blog post, the first in a series of posts about using .NET with Amazon CodeCatalyst, we will guide you through building and deploying a .NET 6.0 ASP.NET Core web API to Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) using the ASP.NET Core web API project blueprint included with CodeCatalyst and the AWS .NET deployment […]

Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently introduced a new workflow template that improves the experience of importing your on-premises virtual machine (VM) images using the AWS Migration Hub Orchestrator console. Previously, when importing Windows Server or Linux VM images using the VM Import/Export service, customers could only use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or […]

CDK offers a high-level abstraction to define AWS resources using modern programming languages. Among its components, it provides aws-s3-assets, which is a high level construct that abstracts packaging AWS Lambda functions. The default behavior of this construct is to zip all the content into a folder and upload it to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket. That works great for Lambda runtimes like Python or Node.js, which do not require code compilation, but for .NET, Java, or Go, which requires code compilation, you’ll need extra steps to restore external dependencies, compile the code, and publish the binary. This post will explore how to streamline building, packaging, and publishing .NET Lambda functions using AWS CDK.

In this blog post, I will show you how to use the new Dedicated Host packing and pricing capability for Microsoft Windows Server and Microsoft SQL Server in the AWS Pricing Calculator.
