SVS403: Optimizing Your Serverless Applications

Resources for SVS403: Optimizing your serverless applications

In the first of this two-part series, you learn what you can do to optimize your serverless applications built with AWS Lambda from the Lambda platform and service side. From how to think about your invoke model and usage to what storage makes the best sense for your use case, this session covers everything that you should consider apart from your Lambda function.

SVS405 - AWS Lambda – Part 2: Optimizing your Lambda function performance

AWS re:Invent 2020

In the second of this two-part series, you learn what you can do to optimize your serverless applications built with AWS Lambda from the function configuration and in your function code. The session covers how you can best measure and tune your function’s performance by configuring memory to get the right application performance. You also hear best practices for prehandler logic and reuse of information to enable fast startup and fast execution of your functions.

SVS401-R1 - Optimizing your serverless applications

AWS re:Invent 2019

Are you an experienced serverless developer? Do you want a handy guide for unleashing the full power of serverless architectures for your production workloads? Are you wondering whether to choose a stream or an API as your event source, or whether to have one function or many? In this session, we discuss architectural best practices, optimizations, and handy cheat codes that you can use to build secure, high-scale, high-performance serverless applications. We use real customer scenarios to illustrate the benefits.
