Java is since many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless Community. Java is known for it high cold start times and high memory footprint. For both you have to pay to the cloud providers of your choice. That's why most developers tried to avoid using Java for such use cases. But the times change: Community and cloud providers improve things steadily to for Java developers. In this talk we look at the features and possibilities AWS cloud provider offers for the Java developers and look the most popular Java frameworks, like Micronaut, Quarkus and Spring Boot and look how (AOT compiler and GraalVM native images play a huge role) they address Serverless challenges and enable Java for broad usage in the Serverless world. I will also take the perspective of the Java developer of the AWS Cloud to show how to make use of this concepts to write perfomant Java functions with AWS Lambda

Continuous Delivery with AWS Lambda - AWS April 2016 Webinar SeriesAmazon Web Services
Managing the deployment of code to multiple AWS Lambda functions and updating your API Gateway methods can be manual and time consuming.
In this webinar, we will show you how to build a deployment pipeline to AWS Lambda using AWS CodePipeline. We will discuss how to use versioning, allowing you to better manage the different variations of your Lambda function and API Gateway methods in your development workflow, such as development, staging, and production. We will walk through how to automate the entire release process of your application from development to staging and finally to production, performing automated integration tests at each stage.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the basics of AWS CodePipeline
Learn how to version AWS Lambda functions and API Gateway methods
Build a deployment pipeline to AWS Lambda
AWS re:Invent 2016: Chalk Talk: Succeeding at Infrastructure-as-Code (GPSCT312)Amazon Web Services
The days of manually managing infrastructure tasks are quickly coming to an end; businesses increasingly need their infrastructure teams to react with the same agility of their development teams. In this session, we discuss various approaches to infrastructure-as-code utilizing AWS solutions across the areas of templated infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and policy as code. We invite you to bring your questions and join AWS Solutions Architects as we dive deeper into the concepts and best practices behind infrastructure-as-code.
AWS has taken over the responsibilities of patching the OS and securing the underlying physical infrastructure that runs your serverless application, so what’s left for you to secure? Quite a bit it turns out.
The OWASP top 10 is as relevant to you as ever; DOS attacks are still a threat even if you can probably brute force your way through it as AWS auto-scales Lambda functions automatically; and did you know attackers can easily steal your AWS credentials via your application dependencies?
In addition to the traditional threats, serverless applications have more granular deployment units and therefore there are more things to configure and secure, and the tools and practices are still catching up with this fast changing world.
Open stack ocata summit enabling aws lambda-like functionality with openstac...Shaun Murakami
Presentation delivered at the OpenStack summit Barcelona 2016.
https://www.openstack.org/videos/video/enabling-aws-s3-lambda-like-functionality-with-openstack-swift-and-openwhisk
Does the concept of server-less architecture intrigue you? OpenWhisk (https://git.io/vKeu3) accelerates innovation through creative chaining of microservices into highly scalable applications. By abstracting away infrastructure, OpenWhisk frees small teams to rapidly work on independent pieces of code simultaneously, keeping development focused solely on creating essential business logic. OpenWhisk allows you to create rules to connect events with actions and compose microservices that get executed independently and in parallel.
With a bit of code, you can have OpenWhisk process events from your Swift Object Storage; similar to what you can do with Lambda functions and AWS S3 storage. As an example, we will demonstrate how you can create an OpenWhisk action to transform an image into a thumbnail whenever a new (larger) image is uploaded into a Swift Container.
Much has been said about DevOps culture, this webinar talks about exactly what it means to exercise a DevOps methodology inside your organization and takes a more detailed look at Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment – two of the elements of a successful DevOps framework. With AWS’s API driven infrastructure, running a lean platform becomes possible and the ability to treat ‘Infrastructure as Code’.
Reasons to attend:
Learn how to set up and experience the benefits of 'Continuous Integration' and 'Continuous Deployment' for your Development Environment.
Learn about DevOps best practices and the agility that the AWS Cloud can bring your business.
Learn how business have successfully implemented DevOps methodologies.
AWS Lambda and Serverless framework: lessons learned while building a serverl...Luciano Mammino
Planet9energy.com is a new electricity company that is building a sophisticated analytics and energy trading platform for the UK market. Since the earliest days of the company we took the unconventional decision to go serverless and finally we are building the product on top of AWS Lambda and the Serverless framework using Node.js. In this talk we will discuss why we took this radical decision, what are the pros and cons of this approach and what are the main issues we faced as a tech team in our design and development experience. We will discuss how normal things like testing and deployment need to be re-thought to work on a serverless fashion but also the benefits of (almost) infinite auto-scalability and the piece of mind of not having to manage hundreds of servers. Finally we will underline how Node.js seems to fit naturally in this scenario and how it makes developing serverless applications extremely convenient.
Thanks to Padraig O'Brien and Luciano Mammino for speaking this month.

Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint. For both you have to pay to the cloud providers of your choice. That's why most developers tried to avoid using Java for such use cases. But the times change: Community and cloud providers improve things steadily for Java developers. In this talk we look at the features and possibilities AWS cloud provider offers for the Java developers and look the most popular Java frameworks, like Micronaut, Quarkus and Spring (Boot) and look how (AOT compiler and GraalVM native images play a huge role) they address Serverless challenges and enable Java for broad usage in the Serverless world.

We also look into the tools which help us figure out the optimal balance between Lambda memory footprint, invocation time and execution cost.
High performance Serverless Java on AWS at GeeCon 2024 KrakowVadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
FaaS or not to FaaS. Visible and invisible benefits of the Serverless paradig...Vadym Kazulkin
When we talk about prices, we often only talk about Lambda costs. In our applications, however, we rarely use only Lambda. Usually we have other building blocks like API Gateway, data sources like SNS, SQS or Kinesis. We also store our data either in S3 or in serverless databases like DynamoDB or recently in Aurora Serverless. All of these AWS services have their own pricing models to look out for. In this talk, we will draw a complete picture of the total cost of ownership in serverless applications and present a decision-making list for determining if and whether to rely on serverless paradigm in your project. In doing so, we look at the cost aspects as well as other aspects such as understanding application lifecycle, software architecture, platform limitations, organizational knowledge and plattform and tooling maturity. We will also discuss current challenges adopting serverless such as lack of high latency ephemeral storage, unsufficient network performance and missing security features.
AWS Lambda SnapStart: Why, How and What AWS Serverless Meetup New York Boston...Vadym Kazulkin
- Challenges of AWS Serverless applications written in Java
- Challenges and limitations of existing solutions like Graal VM Native Image
- What is AWS SnapStart and how it addresses those challenges
- Benchmarking AWS Lambda SnapStart using plain Java and also frameworks like Quarkus, Micronaut and SpringBoot
- Optimization techniques like Priming
- Current challenges and limitations of AWS Lambda SnapStart
Serverless has gained a lot on popularity recently and changed the way we develop the applications. We no longer need to care about setting up and managing the servers, scalability and deployment is simplified. Serverless is very often referred to as the approach which will let you to shift focus to implementing business logic when writing the code. But where has the complexity moved to now? How performant is Java code in serverless solution? Is serverless good for complex solutions? What are the benefits? During my talk I’d like to answer those questions based on our experiences of working on serverless solution written fully in Java.

Simplifying development and deployment of serverless applications with Open Source frameworks and tools: Serverless, Gordon, Chalice, etc.
With AWS Lambda, you can easily build scalable microservices for mobile, web, and IoT applications or respond to events from other AWS services without managing infrastructure. In this session, you’ll see demonstrations and hear more about newly launched features. We’ll show you how to use Lambda to build web, mobile, or IoT backends and voice-enabled apps, and we'll show you how to extend both AWS and third party services by triggering Lambda functions. We’ll also provide productivity and performance tips for getting the most out of your Lambda functions and show how cloud native architectures use Lambda to eliminate “cold servers” and excess capacity without sacrificing scalability or responsiveness.
Managed services such as AWS Lambda and API Gateway allow developers to focus on value adding development instead of IT heavy lifting. This workshop introduces how to build a simple REST blog backend using AWS technologies and the serverless framework.

Amazon DevOps Guru for Serverless Applications at DevOpsCon 2024 LondonVadym Kazulkin
In this talk, we’ll use a standard serverless application that uses API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, Step Functions (and other AWS-managed services). We'll explore how Amazon DevOps Guru recognizes operational issues and anomalies like increased latency and error rates (timeouts, throttling, and resource limits) and integrate DevOps Guru with PagerDuty to provide even better incident management. Amazon DevOps Guru analyzes data like application metrics, logs, events, and traces to establish baseline operational behavior and then uses ML to detect anomalies. The service uses pre-trained ML models that are able to identify spikes in application requests, so it knows when to alert and when not to.

There is a misunderstanding that everything is possible with the Serverless Services in AWS. For example, the misunderstanding that your Lambda function may scale without limitations. But each AWS service (not only Serverless) has a big list of quotas that everybody needs to be aware of, understand, and take into account during the development. In this talk, I'll explain the most important quotas (in terms of scaling, but not only that) of Serverless services like API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, and Aurora Serverless and how to architect your solution with these quotas in mind.
Revolutionize DevOps lifecycle with Amazon CodeCatalyst and DevOps Guru at De...Vadym Kazulkin
AWS is on a journey to revolutionize DevOps using the latest technologies. In this talk I'll introduce 2 Amazon services which cover different stages of the DevOps lifecycle: CodeCatalyst and DevOps Guru.
Amazon CodeCatalyst is an integrated service for software development teams adopting continuous integration and deployment practices into their software development process. CodeCatalyst puts the tools you need all in one place. You can plan work, collaborate on code, and build, test, and deploy applications with continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools. You can also integrate AWS resources with your projects by connecting your AWS accounts to your CodeCatalyst space. By managing all of the stages and aspects of your application lifecycle in one tool, you can deliver software quickly and confidently.

Writing less code with Serverless on AWS at OOP 2022Vadym Kazulkin
The purpose of Serverless is to focus on writing the code that delivers business value and offload undifferentiated heavy lifting to the Cloud providers or SaaS vendors of your choice. Today’s code quickly becomes tomorrow’s technical debt even if you meet the perfect decision. The less you own, the better it is from the maintainability point of view. In this talk I will go through examples of the various Serverless architectures on AWS where you glue together different Serverless managed services relying mostly on configuration, significantly reducing the amount of the code written to perform the task. Own less, build more!

Projects Valhalla and Loom at IT Tage 2021Vadym Kazulkin
In this presentation, we will explain the motivation, added values, challenges and current status of the Valhalla and Loom projects.
In the Valhalla project, Inline Type is introduced in Java. Inline Type is an immutable type that differs only by the state of its properties. The purpose is to reduce memory consumption and access times for such data types. Also as a part of this project Java type system will be unified so that Java will become a pure object-oriented programming language.
In the Loom project, lightweight threads are implemented in Java. The purpose is to no longer trade off between simplicity and scalability of the source code and to reconcile both.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

• Java runtime loads and initializes
handler class
• Static initializer block of the handler class is
executed
• Boosted host full CPU access up to 10 seconds
• Lambda calls the handler method
• Full CPU access only approx. from 1.8 GB

26. Lambda in VPC
As function’s execution environment
scales
• More network interfaces are created and
attached to the Lambda infrastructure
• The exact number of network interfaces
created and attached is a factor of your
function configuration and concurrency
• Caused additional the cold start up to

Chris Munns: "Announcing improved VPC networking for AWS Lambda functions”
https://aws.amazon.com/de/blogs/compute/announcing-improved-vpc-networking-for-aws-lambda-functions/
27. Lambda in VPC Improvements:
• The network interface creation happens
when Lambda function is created or its
VPC settings are updated.
• Because the network interfaces are shared
across execution environments, only a
handful of network interfaces are required
per function
• Reduced additional cold start from approx.
10 seconds to below 1 second

28. Improvements 1/4
• Switch to the AWS SDK 2.0 for Java
• Lower footprint and more modular
• Allows to configure HTTP Client of our choice (e.g. Java own Basic HTTP Client)
• Initialize and prime dependencies during initialization phase
• Use static initialization in the handler class
• Provide all known values (for building clients e.g.
DynamoDBClient) to avoid auto-discovery
• credential provider, region, endpoint
• Less (dependencies, classes) is more

41. Cost optimization
• Java is well optimized for long running server applications
• High startup times
• High memory utilization

49. GraalVM on SubstrateVM
A game changer for Java & Serverless?
Java Function compiled into a native executable using
GraalVM on SubstrateVM reduces
• “cold start” times
• memory footprint
by order of magnitude compared to running on JVM.
And both memory and execution time are cost dimensions,
when using Serverless in the cloud
50. GraalVM on SubstrateVM
A game changer for Java & Serverless?
Current challenges with native executable using GraalVM :
• Most Cloud Providers (AWS) doesn’t provide GraalVM as Java
Runtime out of the box, only Open JDK (e.g. AWS provides
Corretto)
• Some Cloud Providers (e.g. AWS) provide Custom Runtime Option

56. Support of GraalVM native images in Frameworks
Spring Framework: working toward GraalVM native image support
without requiring additional configuration or workaround is one of the
themes of upcoming Spring Framework 5.3
Spring Boot: Ongoing work on experimental Spring Graal Native
project. Probably ready for the 2.4 release
Quarkus: a Kubernetes Native Java framework developed by Red Hat
tailored for GraalVM and HotSpot, crafted from best-of-breed Java
libraries and standards.
Micronaut: a modern, JVM-based, full-stack framework for building
modular, easily testable microservice and serverless applications.

57. Steps to deploy to AWS
• Installation prerequisites
• Framework of your choice (Micronaut, Quarkus, Spring)
• Java 8 or 11
• Apache Maven or Gradle
• AWS CLI and AWS SAM CLI (for local testing)
• Build Linux executable of your application with GraalVM native-image
• Deploy Linux executable as AWS Lambda Custom Runtime
• Function.zip with bootstrap Linux executable

77. Conclusion
• GraalVM and Frameworks are really powerful with a lot of potential
• But in combination with Native Image currently not without challenges
• AWS Lambda Custom runtime requires Linux executable only
• Windows and Mac developers may only build Linux executable via Docker
• plenty of 'No instances of … are allowed in the image heap’ and other errors when
building a native image
• Lots of experimentation with additional build arguments like “initialize-at-runtime” or
“delay-class-initialization-to-runtime“ required
• Once again: Less (dependencies, classes) is more
• AWS Lambda function should be small and shouldn’t have many dependencies
