I often hear about Lambda functions that spend most of their time waiting on I/O. Built a demo on Lambda Managed Instances to test the cost math.
Not as clear-cut as I expected.

EXACTLY!!! That and I could never explain to my agent what he was trying to say. That math is HARD!
Fun weekend project. My brother runs a pipelaying crew. I built him a calculator app but every change went through me. So I built a Telegram bot that lets him describe what he wants in plain English. An AI agent handles the rest.

S3 Files just launched. Lambda functions can mount S3 buckets as a file system now.
I built AI code review agents on it with a full SAM template. Durable function orchestrator, two Strands agents, shared S3 Files workspace. Every IaC gotcha documented.

Hey #serverless developers I hope to see you at @awscloudconcept.bsky.social re:Invent next week. If you are doing the "Road to re:Invent hackathon" (s12d.com/rtri), buckle up, I'll be one of your hosts! If you love serverless, find @julianwood.com or myself to get one of these!
And finally... I am so excited for this one, it open's so many possibilities! aws.amazon.com/blogs/comput...
But wait, API Gateway isn't done! If you have ever wanted an API Gateway in front of you ALB for containers, it used to require an NLB as well. No more! aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...
Another fun pre:Invent release. This has been a highly requested feature, it's finally out! Amazon API Gateway Portals! aws.amazon.com/blogs/comput...
