I did not know much about AWS until today and just within a few hours watching your videos on youtube, I don't feel overwhelmed anymore about learning everything that AWS has to offer. Serverless services make things so much easier for someone who is just starting to learn AWS. Thank you so much for your excellent videos!

[curiously_drvn]

Really like your videos. Thank you for the time and effort your put into these. Your video on S3 helped me get one of the best presentation grades in my AWS DevOps training cohort!

[LivIT]

Useful precise and get to the point video thank you 😊

[MhyB]

very helpful and well explained. thank you

[anthonyparrett]

Really looking forward to more information about cold starts, especially when it comes to micro service architecture, if possible. Maybe even cost comparisons between running a server 24/7 with something like ECS/Fargate vs. using provisioned concurrency.

Can we deploy spring boot java application with lambda and dynamodb

[szeredaiakos]

If you can fill couple of datacenters with your company's infrastructure it is vastly cheaper to do it in-house. Agility included.

really looking forward to your Udemy course but they don't seem to be having a sale right now - any chance of that happening soon or getting a coupon code?

[mrnobody]

I gonna take your course for sure.

I want to ask U, what you would suggest the most for the local development environment setup between CDK and SAM?

I need to use Lambda with Python for a project which will interact with SQS, Rest APIs and will probably use DynamoDB or Aurora for the data layer.

Coming from the java world, I'd like to create lots of unit tests and mocks (I saw moto as framework) and be able to debug the code locally pointing to the real infrastructure or to mocks.

With such requirements, what would you suggest between CDK and SAM?

I saw the summary of your course and I didn't see anything regarding development environment setup, unit tests and mocks. Maybe something regarding CDK. If it is so, I suggest you to add something.

Thank you a lot for all the work you do, really appreciated.

9:00 doesn't ec2 also
1. you don't not need to manage hardware
2. can use AWS builtin security
3. can autoscale
4. pay for what you use
5. performant
6. service integration
7. easy to use
