‘When it comes to Serverless, it is not possible that you wouldn’t have heard about Yan already or haven’t come across his awesome blog posts or his amazing presentations. I first met Yan at Yubl. Within a short span of time, he designed and built the new backend completely using AWS Serverless stack. This was no small feat as it became a reference architecture for many. Quite a lot of his ideas and work has even made its way into the AWS Serverless Well-Architected whitepaper, which speaks volume of Yan’s contribution. Yan is truly a Serverless Guru and I am glad he was recognized as AWS Serverless Heroes. He is very knowledgeable, deeply understands serverless technology. He is humble and an approachable person. I am glad to have had met Yan where I learnt a lot while working with him at Yubl and still keep learning via his blogs and presentations. He is a true asset to any team/org and I can't recommend him enough. ’

Info
I teach engineers to build better software faster with serverless technologies. I mainly do this in 3 ways:
[1] FREE newsletter: I share weekly tutorials and tips for building serverless applications.
[2] Podcast: I speak with other practitioners and share their stories from the trenches. What works for them, what doesn't, and what lessons can we learn from their experiences?
[3] Cohort-based workshop: For engineers who want the most efficient way to level up their serverless game. I have a 4-week, zero-to-heroes program that will teach you everything you need to know - from system design, testing, CI/CD, security, and observability to performance & cost optimization techniques. You learn what works in a matter of weeks and save yourself years of trial and error.
The workshop content is continuously updated to reflect the latest trends and emerging practices. Over 20+ AWS Heroes & Community Builders and 1000+ other students have taken this workshop, including students from AWS, Booking, LEGO, HBO, CapitalOne and Siemens.
ABOUT ME:
I am an AWS Serverless Hero and Independent Consultant. I have over 15 years of experience in software development and AWS. I was amongst the first to be recognized by AWS as an AWS Hero in 2018.
Before going out on my own, I'd:
→ Been an architect and principal engineer in various industries, from banking, e-commerce, mobile gaming, social networking and sports streaming.
→ Worked on large-scale systems that serve millions of concurrent users.
→ Worked in both startups as well as regulated enterprise environments.
→ Worked on one of the earliest, most complex serverless architectures outside AWS.
→ Spoken at 200+ tech conferences worldwide, including re:Invent.
As an independent consultant, I offer services to clients of all sizes and across many industries and domains, from strategic advice and architecture reviews to workshops and hands-on delivery.
→ I helped a client launch a new social network in 4 weeks. I was responsible for building everything on the backend, from setting up AWS organization, CI/CD pipelines to implementing all the backend services.
→ I have advised world-class clients such as Taco Bell, Toyota, and other well-known names.
→ I have trained entire teams at Booking, DVLA, YNAP and many others.

My final year project was to create a Java application to find the optimal lighting configuration around an object to achieve the best (most evenly distributed) lighting effect. The drive behind the project is that: texture images captured from real-life photos already contain lighting clues (e.g. shadows and highlights), and therefore when used on a 3D model placed in a virtual environment where lighting effects are applied, the result is not always realistic due to the residual lighting artefacts on the texture image.

F# Deep Dives
Manning
F# Deep Dives presents a collection of real-world F# techniques, each written by expert practitioners. Each chapter presents a new use case where you'll read how the author used F# to solve a complex problem more effectively than would have been possible using a traditional approach. You'll not only see how a specific solution works in a specific domain, you'll also learn how F# developers approach problems, what concepts they use to solve them, and how they integrate F# into existing systems…

🌟 The Right Architecture for Your SaaS Platform 🌟 When it comes to building a SaaS platform, the architecture you choose can make or break your project. And guess what? The choice isn’t black and white—it depends on various factors. 🤔 Let’s talk about monolithic architecture first. It’s like a cozy studio apartment where everything you need is in one space. It’s perfect for simpler applications, quick launches, and when you want to keep things straightforward and snappy. Plus, if your team is small and you’re looking to hit the market fast, going monolithic can be like a speedboat—swift and efficient. 🏁 Now, onto microservices. Imagine a sprawling mansion with different rooms for everything. This is the go-to for complex, scalable applications that grow with your user base. If you’re planning to frequently update features, need high fault tolerance, and love the idea of using a variety of tech stacks, microservices are your best bet. It’s like having a team of specialists, each handling their own department. 🏠 For SaaS development, your choice should be tailored to the specific needs of your project, the expertise of your team, and the complexity of the application you’re dreaming up. Whether you’re a startup or a seasoned enterprise, the architecture you choose is the foundation of your service. So, choose wisely! 🧐 What’s your experience with monolithic vs. microservices architectures? Drop your thoughts below! 👇 #SaaSDevelopment #SaaSSolutions #SoftwareArchitecture #TechTalks #TechChoices #BuildingTogether

You have to love it when you can get a negative review that essentially says "Vendor made a change that makes their work less exploitable" when the software remains under an OSI approved license. People don't inherently understand open source companies. We didn't make KumoMTA open source because we're a bunch of anti-capitalist hippies, we did it because we considered it to be the best option for our customers. To keep that decision in place, our customers need to support us, otherwise the next option becomes either closing up shop or moving to a model that doesn't make supporting our efforts optional. Fortunately for us we work in a very niche space where our customers recognize the value we bring them and the importance of us continuing to do so, and steadily growing numbers of them are becoming sponsors and ensuring the continuous future of KumoMTA. Because of this unique combination of factors we haven't had to look at open core models or source available licenses to succeed.

Next week I will post a an article about how AI + websites are 'structured' for today and tomorrow. One of the core principles at DevHub is to never build a platform scared of the future (or Google). Today, that's AI. Below is a recent YouTube conversation with DevHub's lead web developer Eric Willis. While we talk about the current back and forth between Wordpress and WP engine - I am not sure how relevant that will be for #franchise brands; in case here is that link --> https://lnkd.in/dK7TQwcS

OpenAI just released "Canvas", providing a more interactive way to write documents and to code, In the past months, some evolutions brought were not just about improving the models but also the way we interact with "AI" : SearchGPT is an example, but also Canvas, or Gemini Studio. Interesting feature - but too early to assess how efficient it is. It does reduce the iteration number and can help build "bigger outputs", but the underlying model limitations (incl. hallucinations) are still there. Still, it is an interesting feature to test - for now only available ChatGPT Plus users. Announcement here: https://lnkd.in/ebk_MWbg
