iRobot has implemented a completely serverless application supporting its vast fleet of connected Roombas. Development on this application was started in 2015, before capable tooling for serverless architectures had evolved. We therefore had to develop our own toolchain, which I'll describe in this talk, along with the lessons we've learned from our experiences in development and production.
