Presentations
Designing serverless applications with AWS Lambda and Java
Deploying simple serverless applications using AWS Lambda is getting easier every day, but for software architects dealing with complex systems, Lambda’s constrained execution environment seems to put it out of consideration, especially when combined with organizational technology choices like Java.

Static Content, the Bulletproof Serverless Way
One of the most compelling Serverless architectures doesn’t need to involve AWS Lambda at all. Amazon’s Simple Storage Service, or S3, is a great option for hosting a website or other static content. However, the naive approach to S3 static content hosting doesn’t account for concerns like custom domains, edge caching, transport encryption (SSL), backups, stale file deletion, and disaster recovery.
