Hi everyone,
It seems I should have enough content for a bi-monthly newsletter. Let's see if I have also enough time... and if you are keen readers.
In this newsletter, I wanted to give a focus on Amazon EventBridge as several articles and news are related to this event bus during the last few weeks.
You'll also find a lot of tools to ease your day-to-day work with serverless and few other great posts, especially one about "function-less" !
I'm also happy to announce the first event on May 26 (6pm CET):
"Do more with less code in a serverless world"
This will remain online, probably on twitch. More info to come.
Register now!

In this article, the author (Lukasz Szymanski) synthesise reports from IDC and Deloitte, and put into perspective the advantage of serverless vs on-prem (regarding infrastructure & operations costs but also downtime and productivity).

Amazon EventBridge has been announced last year and has taken an important place in the serverless landscape, mainly in event driven architectures. EventBridge provides an event bus (ESB you said?), compatible with Saas Provider (26 as of today) and more than 90 AWS services.

Recently, James Beswick described how to leverage EventBridge to decouple large applications.
More recently, AWS announced the general availability of Schema Registry, an easy way to share and discover events and their "schemas" (sort of event metamodel).
Finally, few days ago, James Beswick, again, published an article to demonstrate the use of EventBridge to register several lambda functions to an S3 event, or send several events from multiple S3 buckets to a single function, things you cannot do with the default S3 event.
EventBridge is really powerfull. If you never played with it, start with this series of videos. |

Serverless tooling
The serveless ecosystem is growing really quickly. New tools are released every week, maybe not as much as the javascript world, but enough to satisfy the geek inside you!

24 open source tools for the serverless developer
In this 2-parts blog article, you'll find (almost) everything you need: frameworks like SAM, the Serverless framework or Claudia.js; cli tools; libraries like middy and many others. Once again, this is a really good work from Yann Cui.

Commercial solutions
If you are looking for commercial-grade solutions, I suggest you to have a look at those ones: Epsagon, Thundra, Dashbird, Lumigo or IOPipe for monitoring, Stackery as another "framework" to ease development and deployment (with a really cool integration to VS Code) and Protego which has been acquired in dec. 2019 by Checkpoint, a big name in security area.

Functionless S3 Integration inside a Serverless Casserole, really good article from Sheen Brisals, engineer at LEGO®, on how to do serverless without function, leveraging API Gateway Service Proxy (works also with SNS, SQS, Kinesis, Step functions, DynamoDB, ...). In this recent article, Renato Byrro uses the exact same technic with DynamoDB.

This will also be the subject of our first event, on May 26 (6pm CET):
Do more with less code in a serverless world. Info & Registration

In this article, Tristan Bessoussa explains how he was able to generate 2000 PDF files in 2 minutes instead of 11 hours, using Lambda and SQS, for less than 2$. A really good example of what you can achieve with serverless!

It's never too late to ask for and Jeremy Daly describes 9 real use cases: RESTful APIs, GraphQL, Websockets , capturing clickstream data, parallel compute, email processing, peripheral/cron jobs, offline/asynchronous processing and machine learning.

In this recent article, Andy Butland examines how the durable functions framework has matured over the past couple of years. If you need to orchestrate several functions, or other more complex workflows, Azure Durable Functions is the way to go.
