Demystifying Serverless: A deep dive into AWS Lambda

Room: Zaal 8 | Time: 11:00 | Duration: 60

This talk aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the inner workings of AWS Lambda, one of the most popular serverless computing services. We will cover the mechanisms behind AWS Lambda, including how it achieves effortless scalability and resilience, the pricing model, and techniques for cost optimization. Attendees will learn about the process of provisioning, using, and tearing down new runtime instances, and discover the possibilities of customizing runtime behavior or even creating a completely custom runtime from scratch.

Shimmers: building an indie mobile game in 2024

Room: Zaal 8 | Time: 13:00 | Duration: 30

Publishing a mobile game as a sole developer is harder than ever, with high user expectations, fierce competition, and stringent regulations. However, using modern tools and technologies, one man army indie developers with full time jobs can still be a thing in 2024! This talk focusses on my journey of conceptualising, building, and deploying an iOS & Android mobile game. We’ll go over the serverless AWS architecture, integrating AWS CDK and Amplify CLI, creating Midjourney art and serving it with Cloudfront and S3, and zoom in on the development journey with its many hurdles and curveballs.

How to use modern serverless with GraphQL

Room: Zaal 8 | Time: 14:10 | Duration: 30

In the year 2024, serverless is much more than just AWS Lambda Functions. Now, it is a full-blown ecosystem of managed services with the concept of paying for what you use. The API level could be written without computing services like Lambda Functions or containers with Fargate. I will show the audience how to deploy the GraphQL API with JavaScript Resolvers, EventBridge, and CDK. Disclaimer: no Lambda Functions will be called during the talk and a demo.

More Network Security: Forward Proxy on AWS Network Firewall & Fargate

Room: Zaal 8 | Time: 15:30 | Duration: 60

We’ve crafted a robust, scalable forward proxy solution integrating AWS Network Firewall, Squid Proxy, Fluentbit, Dnsmasq, and Telegraf - all components in containers. 🌐 The AWS Network Firewall serves as a transparent proxy, applying stateful and stateless whitelist blocking rules. 🦑 Squid Proxy, operating as an explicit proxy, is deployed in an ECS container alongside Fluentbit, which forwards logs to AWS CloudWatch. 🔧 Dnsmasq, also in an ECS container, resolves DNS issues related to Let’s Encrypt, ensuring smooth SSL/TLS certificate management.
