Have you talked to AWS about why that's the case? AWS Lambda should handle that order of magnitude just fine, as you have an initial burst concurrency quota of at least 500 requests per region (which you also can request to get increas

I agree. Iteration speed and the ability to debug applications are the biggest downsides for me as well when developing Serverless applications. To make debugging at least a bit easier, I prefer doing structured logging (e.g. by utilizing A

Yes, absolutely. And to be honest to get started with it for a software developer which doesn't have any "cloud" experience is pretty rough. Suddenly that developer needs to have a understanding of AWS in general, IAM, CloudF

SAM is able to run AWS Lambda functions locally and to emulate some API Gateway behavior. It doesn't allow you to run all the other services like DynamoDB, SNS, S3, etc. locally. As Serverless applications often rely on such additional

I honestly expected more. While compute performance and power efficiency seems to be really good, the M1 chip is apparently limited to 16GB RAM, 2TB storage and 2 Thunderbolt/USB4 controllers. Comparing the new 13" MacBook Pro wit

That was just a regular internet connection. Not sure who messed up, but somehow the (dynamic) IP address block the ISP handed out was associated with Iran at that point in time.

A book painting such a picture is "Black Out" by Marc Elsberg ([1], [2]). I can wholeheartedly recommend it, as it points a pretty scary, yet plausible scenario and is a proper thriller as well. Its plot takes mainly place in Germ
