aws, iot, security, serverless

Secure communication is a important in IoT systems, where certificates and trust play a vital role. In this post, I explore the foundations of certificate management, including PKI, certificate chains, and trust. Also I introduce a serverless self-service API using Amazon API Gateway and Lambda for an easy way to create certificates. This hands-on approach is great for learning purposes and development environments, production setups however require robust managed solutions.

Serverless AWS DevOps

In today’s fast-paced development environments, reducing manual tasks is crucial for productivity. This talk will explore how MyMoney, fintech market leader in Sweden, leveraged Slack integrated with AWS, creating an event-driven solution, to automate tasks across a multi-account setup. Learn how this journey enhanced productivity and security by eliminating repetitive tasks, minimizing human error. A key aspect was integrating alarms and notifications directly into Slack, enabling developers to take immediate action on system alerts. We will look at the problems, implementation, and challenges faced. Join us to gain valuable insights and practical tips for transforming your workflows. Audience will learn how we integrated our DevOps way of working and tooling with Slack to automate tasks, boosting productivity, creating better developer experience and at the same time reducing cost.

Events vs streaming data in AWS

2024-06-27

aws, event-driven, streaming data

Events are changes in a system’s state, often triggering specific actions, while data streams represent continuous flows of data elements over time. Events can form part of data streams, but not all data streams are composed of events, as they may include continuous data points like sensor readings. AWS offers services like Amazon EventBridge and SNS for managing events, Amazon Kinesis for, real-time data streams, and IoT Core that can handle both, making it possible to handle both concepts in cloud.
