Building Serverless Applications on AWS with TypeScript
Workshop
This workshop teaches you the basics of serverless application development with TypeScript. We'll start with a simple Lambda function, set up the project and the infrastructure-as-a-code (AWS CDK), and learn how to organize, test, and debug a more complex serverless application.
Table of contents:        - How to set up a serverless project with TypeScript and CDK        - How to write a testable Lambda function with hexagonal architecture        - How to connect a function to a DynamoDB table        - How to create a serverless API        - How to debug and test a serverless function        - How to organize and grow a serverless application

Demystify the DX for Lambda functions
In this session, I share with you how AWS CDK and AWS Toolkit can simplify the developer experience to run serverless workloads in the cloudA session with no slides, just an IDE and a CLI for deploying an API in the cloud, update it quickly, and retrieve logs without leaving your favourite IDE!

Building Real-time Serverless GraphQL APIs on AWS with TypeScript and CDK
CDK (Cloud development kit) enables developers to build cloud infrastructure using popular programming languages like Python, Typescript, or JavaScript. CDK is a next-level abstraction in infrastructure as code, allowing developers who were traditionally unfamiliar with cloud computing to build scalable APIs and web services using their existing skillset, and do so in only a few lines of code.
In this talk, you’ll learn how to use the TypeScript flavor of CDK to build a hyper-scalable real-time API with GraphQL, Lambda, DynamoDB, and AWS AppSync . At the end of the talk, I’ll live code an API from scratch in just a couple of minutes and then test out queries, mutations, and subscriptions.
By the end of the talk, you should have a good understanding of GraphQL, AppSync, and CDK and be ready to build an API in your next project using TypeScript and CDK.

Automate React Site Deployments from GitHub to S3 & CloudFront
In this talk, I will demonstrate how to create a CI/CD pipeline for a React application in AWS. We'll pull the source code from GitHub and run tests against the application before deploying it to an S3 bucket for static site hosting. The site will then be distributed using CloudFront which will point to the S3 bucket. All of the infrastructure will be built using Terraform. In addition, I'll make use of Terragrunt to show how to create this setup for multiple environments.

AWS Lambda Performance Tuning
Have you ever wonder how to get the best out of your Lambda functions?If so, this talk will reveal the behind the scene one of the most popular serverless service and you will be exposed to a step by step guidance for optimizing your functions.During this session, I will walk you through the mindset to reduce your Lambda functions execution time. In the example presented I was able to reduce the execution time by 95% for warm start and over 50% with cold starts improving also the transactions per seconds served with this API.
