In this session, we'll talk about why Frontend Developers should care about serverless and how it gives frontend-focused teams the superpower to build scalable backend for their applications without all the traditional overhead of managing the infrastructure themselves.
Serverless a superpower for frontend developersYan Cui
We'll look at some common mistakes JavaScript Developers make when they move to serverless and debunk misconceptions about Lambda performance and cold starts. We will also offer tips for optimizing your functions, and how best to test and deploy them using CI/CD best practices.
Looking in from the outside, serverless seems so simple! And yet, many companies are struggling on their journey to serverless. In this webinar, AWS Serverless Hero Yan Cui highlights a number of common mistakes companies are making when they adopt serverless so you can avoid them.
Serverless Design Patterns (London Dev Community)Yan Cui
Serverless technologies like AWS Lambda has drastically simplified the task of building reactive systems - drop a file into S3 and a Lambda function would be triggered to process it, push an event into a Kinesis stream and magically it'll be processed by a Lambda function in real-time, you can even use Lambda to automate the process of auditing and securing your AWS account by automatically reacting to rule violations to your security policy.
Join us in this talk to see some architectural design patterns that have emerged with AWS Lambda, and learn how to pick the right event source based on the tradeoffs you want. Amongst the many patterns we'll explore, here are a few to whet your appetite : pub-sub, cron, push-pull, saga and decoupled invocation.

MongoDB Europe 2016 - Star in a Reasonably Priced Car - Which Driver is Best?MongoDB
MongoDB's unique Idiomatic Drivers let you work natively with database objects in your favourite language, removing the need to explicitly convert your data and queries to text formats such as SQL, Javascript or XML. Drivers do all the hard work of translating to serialised BSON objects on the wire, removing the need for server-side parsing and ensuring security against injection attacks. Server load and hardware requirements are reduced at the expense of additional client side CPU cycles. In this presentation we compare the performance of drivers in a number of languages to see what impact your language choice can have on your hosting costs and throughput.
FinDev as a business advantage in the post covid19 economyYan Cui
The impact COVID19 has had on consumer economy, ripples out to other service providers - analytics tools, etc because everyone is going to be squeezed. And the variable-cost (or pay-as-you-use) pricing model will be more appealing as companies tighten up their budgets for non-essential services/tools.
Azure Functions - Get rid of your servers, use functions!QAware GmbH
Cloud Native Night November 2016, Munich: Talk by Manuela Rink (Technical Evengelist at Microsoft).
Join our Meetup: www.meetup.com/cloud-native-muc
Abstract: Not so long ago we had our own servers in the basement for our backend systems. With the birth of various cloud providers like Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services our own iron soon was gone and we started to host our systems on virtual servers in big datacenters around the world. By doing this we cut down maintenance time and gained freedom for a (nearly) free choice of hosting worldwide. We transferred our systems on a physical level. Now we are able to take this process a step further and cut down our systems on a functional level: by hosting logic in... functions!
This talk gives a first insight und oversight of Azure Functions - how they work, what you can do with them and how your system can benefit from a „slim down your system“ idea like this.
Serverless technologies drastically simplify the task of building modern, scalable APIs in the cloud, and GraphQL makes it easy for frontend teams to consume these APIs and to iterate quickly on your product idea. Together, they are a perfect combination for a product-focused, full-stack team to deliver customer values quickly.
In this talk, see how we built a new social network mobile app in under 4 weeks using Lambda, AppSync, DynamoDB and Algolia. How we approached CI/CD, testing, authentication and lessons we learnt along the way.

Serverless technologies allow developers to go faster and do so much more with less. They allow businesses to innovate faster than ever possible before and the pay-per-use pricing model opens up a world of opportunities to improve cost efficiency. Cost optimization is no longer a guessing game, but a surgical operation that can target business areas with the most saving potential based on data. New business models based on pay-per-use will soon disrupt incumbents in established markets and create better value for customers. In this talk, we'll see how businesses around the world are using serverless technologies to drive their success and growth, and the lessons we can learn from them.
From Prototype to Production: How to take the leap in IoT... and stick the landing
A field-tested, production-ready IoT prototype is both an enormous milestone and the beginning of a brand new challenge, one that requires new skills, new tools, new partners, and a keen eye for both danger and opportunity. As CTO of cloud-connectivity pioneer Soracom, Kenta Yasukawa has helped customers around the world manage the tricky transition from prototype to production. This session will examine real-world use cases across industries to to show how to achieve success at scale. From managing certificates in Shenzhen to capping connectivity cost in California, today's cloud offers more opportunities than ever to break through the hardware, software and connectivity dependencies unique to IoT.

Apply best parts of microservices to serverlessYan Cui
Whenever a new paradigm comes along, we often cast the previous incumbents as relics to be forgotten by history, only to then repeat the same mistakes as they once did. On the surface Serverless has revolutionised how we build and run software, but deep down we are still building microservices and face the same challenges. As more of us adopt Serverless and build increasingly complex systems using this new paradigm, it's important to take a moment to reflect on the lessons others have learnt about building microservices and how they can be applied to our Serverless applications.
Looking in from the outside, serverless seems so simple! And yet, many companies are struggling on their journey to serverless. In this talk, I highlight a number of mistakes companies are making when they adopt serverless.
Serverless on AWS : Understanding the hard parts at Serverless Meetup Dusseld...Vadym Kazulkin
We will look into the challenges, such as "cold start" with Lamda or "provisioned throughput" with DynamoDB and show you which strategies and options exist. We will also address topics like Tracing of Lambda-Functions and implementation of aggregation logic, Scaling and the Capacity Modes (reserved, provisioned and on-demand) options for DynamoDB. Finally, we'll have a look at the first relational serverless data base "Aurora Serverless" and its new data API.
How to build a social network on serverlessYan Cui
Many people are building different workloads using serverless technologies these days, but how would a non-trivial system such as a social network look like on serverless?
In this talk Yan will discuss his journey of migrating a social network startup to serverless, and how his team was able to improve performance, scalability and feature delivery using serverless technologies.
Yan will discuss how serverless technologies such as Lambda are used to implement each part of their system, including search, push notifications, timeline, user recommendations, and business intelligence. If you're wondering how serverless can be used to solve a wide variety of challenges in your business, this is the talk for you.
The world of cloud computing is on a verge of revolution, the Serverless revolution. With the advent of Function as a Service capabilities offered by the major cloud providers, the architectures we will be building in the future are going to be very different from those you are familiar with today.
In this talk I will introduce the core concepts around Serverless/FaaS and describe some archirectural and operational aspects of distributed systems built on top the Serverless stack. I will also present some experiences, challenges faced and lessons learned from the Serverless project using AWS cloud platform.
VISUG - Approaches for application request throttlingMaarten Balliauw
Speaking from experience building a SaaS: users are insane. If you are lucky, they use your service, but in reality, they probably abuse. Crazy usage patterns resulting in more requests than expected, request bursts when users come back to the office after the weekend, and more! These all pose a potential threat to the health of our web application and may impact other users or the service as a whole. Ideally, we can apply some filtering at the front door: limit the number of requests over a given timespan, limiting bandwidth, ...
In this talk, we’ll explore the simple yet complex realm of rate limiting. We’ll go over how to decide on which resources to limit, what the limits should be and where to enforce these limits – in our app, on the server, using a reverse proxy like Nginx or even an external service like CloudFlare or Azure API management. The takeaway? Know when and where to enforce rate limits so you can have both a happy application as well as happy customers.

Patterns and practices for building resilient serverless applications.pdfYan Cui
Lambda gives you multi-AZ out-of-the-box, but still, things can go wrong in production. There are region-wide outages, and performance degradation in services your function depends on can cause it to time out or error. And what if you're dealing with downstream systems that just aren't as scalable and can't handle the load you put on them? The bottom line is many things can go wrong and they often do at the worst of times. The goal of building resilient systems is not to prevent failures, but to build systems that can withstand these failures. In this talk, we will look at a number of practices and architectural patterns that can help you build more resilient serverless applications. Such as multi-region, active-active, employing DLQs and surge queues. We'll also see how we can use chaos experiments to help us identify failure modes before they manifest in production.
Serverless observability - a hero's perspectiveYan Cui
Yan Cui, an AWS Serverless Hero, will talk about the learnings from using serverless at scale.
He will cover the challenges for observability in serverless asynchronous workloads and the patterns to address those challenges, like using centralized logging, correlation IDs, tracing, lambda extensions.
How to ship customer value faster with step functionsYan Cui
Learn all about AWS Step Functions and how to use them to model business workflows and ship customer values quickly. In this session, we will talk about what is Step Functions, how to model business workflows as state machines, real-world case studies, and design patterns. By the end of this webinar, you should have a good idea of where Step Functions fit into your application and why you should use them (and why not!) to model workflows instead of building a custom solution yourself.
One of the key characteristics of serverless components is the pay-per-use pricing model. For example, with AWS Lambda, you don’t pay for the uptime of the underlying infrastructure but for the no. of invocations and how long your code actually runs for.
This important characteristic removes the need for many premature micro-optimizations as your cost is always tightly linked to usage and minimizes waste. As a result, many applications would run at a fraction of the cost if they were moved to serverless.
The pay-per-use pricing model also enables more accurate cost prediction and monitoring based on your application’s throughput. This gives rise to the notion of FinDev, where finance and development can intersect and allows optimization to be targeted to give the optimal return-on-invest on the engineering efforts.
And by building your application on serverless components, you can also leverage it as a business advantage and offer a more competitive, usage-based pricing to your customers. Which is going to be crucial at a time when businesses all around the world are affected by COVID and are looking for better efficiencies.
In this webinar, we will cover topics such as:
- How does the cost of serverless differ from serverful applications?
- How to predict and monitor cost in serverless applications?
- When should you optimize for cost?
- How can you leverage usage-based pricing as a business advantage?
Why your next serverless project should use AWS AppSyncYan Cui
In this webinar, Yan Cui and Lumigo Software Engineer Guy Moses will discuss some of the power of GraphQL and AppSync and why AppSync + Lambda + DynamoDB should be your stack of choice in 2021 and beyond!

How to bring chaos engineering to serverlessYan Cui
You might have heard about chaos engineering in the context of Netflix and Amazon, and how they kill EC2 servers in production at random to verify that their systems can stay up in the face of infrastructure failures. But did you know that the same ideas can be applied to serverless applications? Yes, despite not having access to the underlying servers, we can still apply principles of chaos engineering to uncover failure modes in our system (and there are plenty!) so we can build a defence against them and make our serverless applications more robust and more resilient!
Migrating existing monolith to serverless in 8 stepsYan Cui
Refactoring a monolith to serverless can be intimidating, but there are discrete steps that you can take to simplify the process. In this talk, AWS Serverless Hero Yan Cui outlines 8 steps to successfully refactor your monolith and highlight key decision points such as language and tooling choices.
AWS has improved Lambda cold starts by leaps and bounds in the last year. But for performance-sensitive applications such as user-facing APIs, Lambda cold starts are still a thorn in one’s side, especially when working with languages such as Java and .Net Core.
In this webinar, we will dive into strategies for improving cold start latency and how to mitigate them altogether with Provisioned Concurrency, and how Lumigo helps you optimize your use of Provisioned Concurrency.

One of the most common performance issues in serverless architectures is elevated latencies from external services, such as DynamoDB, ElasticSearch or Stripe.
In this webinar, we will show you how to quickly identify and debug these problems, and some best practices for dealing with poor performing 3rd party services.

When a Lambda function times out, it’s one of the trickier problems to debug, especially if the function performs multiple IO calls. What was it doing when it timed out? And how do I identify these timeout errors quickly when Lambda lumps them together with other unhandled exceptions?
In this webinar, we will show you how to identify and debug timeout errors, and strategies for mitigating timeouts and degraded performance more gracefully when there are underlying issues.
One of the most common performance issues in serverless architectures is elevated latencies from external services, such as DynamoDB, ElasticSearch or Stripe. In this webinar, we will focus on how to monitor, detect and fix latency issues that arise when our Lambda functions need to talk to other services.
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
