Serverless Unpacked: A Developer’s Guide to AWS Lambda Internals   https://schedule.businesscompassllc.com/   AWS Lambda has revolutionized how developers approach application architecture by offering a  serverless  compute service that eliminates the need to manage servers. While it's straightforward to use on the surface—just upload your code and Lambda runs it—the internals are an elegant dance of lifecycle management, isolation, scalability, and optimization. This podcast dives deep into the internals of AWS Lambda, providing developers with a clear understanding of what happens  behind the curtain . #AWSLambda #Serverless #DevOps #CloudComputing #AWS #Microservices #CloudArchitecture #LambdaPerformance #ServerlessFramework #LambdaInternals

AWS Lambda has revolutionized how developers approach application architecture by offering a serverless compute service that eliminates the need to manage servers. While it's straightforward to use on the surface—just upload your code and Lambda runs it—the internals are an elegant dance of lifecycle management, isolation, scalability, and optimization. This guide dives deep into the internals of AWS Lambda, providing developers with a clear understanding of what happens behind the curtain .  What is AWS Lambda? AWS Lambda is a Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform provided by Amazon Web Services. It lets developers run code without provisioning or managing servers, and is triggered by events from other AWS services or HTTP requests via API Gateway. Key characteristics include: Event-driven execution Automatic scaling Pay-per-use pricing Short-lived, stateless functions  Understanding the Lambda Execution Model 1. Cold Starts vs. Warm Starts When a Lambda function is invoked...

Automate Your Cloud: How to Use Terraform for Infrastructure as Code   https://schedule.businesscompassllc.com/   In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, manual infrastructure management is time-consuming and error-prone. Enter  Terraform , the open-source Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool developed by HashiCorp, which revolutionizes how cloud infrastructure is provisioned and managed. Whether building scalable AWS architectures or deploying complex multi-cloud environments, Terraform enables declarative automation at scale with efficiency, repeatability, and confidence. #Terraform #InfrastructureAsCode #IaC #DevOps #CloudAutomation #AWS #HashiCorp #CloudComputing #TerraformModules #CloudOps #DevOpsTools #IaCTools #GitOps

Introduction In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, manual infrastructure management is time-consuming and error-prone. Enter Terraform , the open-source Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool developed by HashiCorp, which revolutionizes how cloud infrastructure is provisioned and managed. Whether building scalable AWS architectures or deploying complex multi-cloud environments, Terraform enables declarative automation at scale with efficiency, repeatability, and confidence. Why Terraform? Terraform stands out in the IaC space for several reasons: Platform Agnostic : Supports major cloud providers including AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and many more. Declarative Configuration Language (HCL) : Describe the desired end-state, and let Terraform figure out the steps to achieve it. Execution Plans : Terraform shows what it will do before it does it. State Management : Maintains a state file to track resources for idempotent deployments. Modular Architecture : Encourages reusability and code organ...
