Providing quality software engineering content in the form of tutorials, applications, services, and commentary suited for developers.
In this article I walk through the process of setting up an automated process utilizing AWS S3, Lambda, and Elastic Transcoder to embed a watermark in to videos initiated by uploading to an S3 bucket.
In this article I demonstrate how to build a serverless REST API using the AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) framework along with the popular Python based Flask micro web framework.
In this article I discuss the merits of using Lambda versioning and aliases along with the AWS Serverless Application Model's (SAM) built-in capability to utilize CodeDeploy with weighted traffic routing for Gradual Deployments
In this article I demonstrate how to setup a AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) project for near realtime streaming of CloudWatch logs to S3 using Kinesis Data Firehose. To keep things interesting I'll be using a Python based demo application that exposes two REST APIs, one for scraping and saving quotes from the web to a DyanmoDB table and another for listing the saved quotes.
In this article I demonstrate how utilize Lambda Layers to share reuable code among multiple Python AWS Lambda functions within AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) applications.
In this aricle I cover creating rudimentary Data Lake on AWS S3 filled with historical Weather Data consumed from a REST API. The S3 Data Lake is populated using traditional serverless technologies like AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and EventBridge rules along with several modern AWS Glue features such as Crawlers, ETL PySpark Jobs, and Triggers.
In this article I demonstrate using a Python based AWS Lambda SAM project with the AWS Data Wrangler Lambda Layer to perform data format translation from GZipped JSON files into Parquet upon an S3 upload event.
Here I present an end-to-end example of a Serverless event driven architecture using Confluent Cloud for stream processing paired with AWS Lambda for event responsive logic using the Serverless Application Model (SAM) framework. Together this architecture will compose a system for fictitious financial stock quote email alerting.
In this article I demonstrate a Cloud Architecture pattern for distributing content stored in S3 but fronted by AWS CloudFront and accessed through signed URLs viable for a specified amount of time.
In this article I demonstrate how one can deploy a Spring Boot app the AWS Cloud with ECS and Fargate then used the Spring Boot Actuator project along with CloudWatch and AWS Lambda to modify runtime configuration in an event driven automated fashion.
