Chaos engineering is a popular practice for building confidence in system resilience. However, many existing tools assume the ability to alter infrastructure configurations, and cannot be easily applied to the serverless application paradigm. Due to the stateless, ephemeral, and distributed nature of serverless architectures, you must evolve the traditional technique when running chaos experiments on these systems.
This blog post explains a technique for running chaos engineering experiments on AWS Lambda functions. The approach uses Lam ..read more

Many industries are required to provide audit trails for decision and transactional systems. AI assisted decision making requires monitoring the full inputs to the decision system in near real time to prevent fraud, detect model drift, and discrimination. Modern systems often use a much wider array of inputs for decision making, including images, unstructured text, historical values, and other large data elements. These large data element ..read more

Designing a workload with AWS Lambda creates questions for developers due to the modularity that can be expressed either at the code or infrastructure level. Using serverless for running code requires additional planning to extract the business logic from the underlying functional components. This deliberate separation of concerns ensures a robust modularity, paving the way for evolutionary architectures.
This post focuses on synchronous workloads, but similar considerations are applicable in other workload ..read more

The combination of portability, efficiency, community, and breadth of features has made Java a popular choice for businesses to build their applications for over 25 years. The introduction of serverless functions, pioneered by AWS Lambda, changed what you need in a programming language and runtime environment. Functions are often short-lived, single-purpose, and do not require extensive infrastructure configuration.
This blog post shows how you can modernize a legacy Java application to run on Lambda with minimal code c ..read more

A typical option to reduce costs associated with running Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances is to stop them when they are idle. However, there are scenarios where stopping an idle instance is not practical. For example, instances with development environments that take time to prepare and run which benefit from not needing to do this process every day. For these instances, hibernation is a better alternative.
This blog post explores a solution that will find idle instances using an Amaz ..read more

AWS Lambda now supports Python 3.12 as both a managed runtime and container base image. Python 3.12 builds on the performance enhancements that were first released with Python 3.11, and adds a number of performance and language readability features in the interpreter. With this release, Python developers can now take advantage of these new features and enhancements when creating serverless applications on AWS Lambda.
You can use Python 3.12 with Powertools for AWS Lambda (Python), a developer toolkit to implement Serverless ..read more

Many organizations use a multi-account strategy for stream processing applications. This involves decomposing the overall architecture into a single producer account and many consumer accounts. Within AWS, in the producer account, you can use Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK), and in their consumer accounts have AWS Lambda functions for event consumption. This blog post explains how you can trigger Lambda functions from a cross-acc ..read more
