Simplifying Serverless Integration Testing: WireMock on AWS Lambda
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
11:00
| Duration: 30
In serverless architectures, integration testing becomes a key focus in the testing pyramid, as local environments cannot fully replicate the complexities of cloud deployments. External APIs, often unavailable or difficult to configure, pose a significant challenge during testing. Mocking external APIs locally with tools like WireMock is common, but to truly validate serverless applications, testing must occur in the deployed environment. This talk explores how to leverage WireMock on AWS Lambda to mock external APIs directly in the cloud.

Streamlining an Event-Driven Architecture: A real world transformation
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
11:30
| Duration: 30
f we are not careful as an event driven architecture matures it can evolve into something resembling the well documented ‘big ball of mud’. This talk will look at how my team has been transforming a production EDA. It will show how a sparsely documented set of AWS SNS topics used to publish and consume cross-domain events have been transformed into an architecture exhibiting discoverability, governance and observability while continuing to run in production without any data loss.

Serverless applications with Aurora DSQL as a database of choice
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
13:00
| Duration: 60
Amazon Aurora DSQL is a serverless distributed SQL database with virtually unlimited scale, highest availability, and zero infrastructure management. In this talk we’ll use a sample serverless application that uses Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda and Aurora DSQL to explore the architecture and features of this database. We’ll explore the scaling behaviour of DSQL, measure performance including cold starts, deep dive into its pricing and current limitations. We’ll also use Strands Agent with Amazon Aurora DSQL to talk to our application using natural language.

Roads: Building a serverless character profile creation pipeline
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
14:00
| Duration: 30
Large language models are good at answering questions, but did you know they are also great at asking them? In this session we’ll look at how to build a scalable, serverless architecture for creating custom character profiles for a role-playing game. We’ll discuss how Bedrock powers the core mechanics, the CDK-based serverless infrastructure the app is built on, and how in-game image assets are generated using Amazon Nova Canvas and Nova Reel.

Building plug-n-play serverless million scale reusable OTP service on AWS
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
15:00
| Duration: 60
Now-a-days due to security considerations passwords alone aren’t enough. One Time Password(OTP) has become norm in logins, critical transactions or new user verification in most consumer apps especially banking, travel and healthcare etc. Third-party OTP services offer a quick solution but they often come with high costs, vendor-lock in rate limits, lack of control and customizations. In this talk, I’ll share the blueprint and our journey for how we built our own centralized OTP service on AWS, slashing our authentication costs while gaining full control over our user journey.

Step On It! Rapid Event-Based AWS Cost Control With Step Functions
Room:
Zaal 11
| Time:
16:00
| Duration: 30
Ever had a cloud bill you weren’t expecting? Managing cloud costs effectively isn’t just about cutting expenses; it’s about building smart, adaptable systems that respond to events in real time. In this session, we’ll explore how event-based architectures and serverless AWS services can transform how you monitor, manage and optimise cloud spend. You’ll learn to evaluate cloud-native tools, automate anomaly detection workflows, and design, deploy, and maintain real-time cost-control solutions through live demos.
