Mastering Remote Debugging with Lambda & AWS vs. Azure

It's time to meetup again 🎉! Join our AWS User Group Stuttgart meetup @ Zoi Stuttgart!

1st Talk: Mastering Remote Debugging with AWS Lambda

Description:
Debugging serverless functions has always been a challenge. The traditional cycle of local emulation, console.log statements, and repetitive deployments can be a major drain on productivity. What if you could set a breakpoint in your local IDE and step through code running in the actual cloud environment, complete with its real-world IAM roles and VPC access?
Join us for a practical, hands-on session where we'll introduce you to the newly released Console-to-IDE integration and remote debugging capabilities for AWS Lambda. We'll show you how to effortlessly transition from the AWS Management Console to your local Visual Studio Code environment, enabling a seamless development workflow.
In this talk, you'll learn how to:
Bridge the gap between local and cloud development using the "Open in VS Code" feature.
Set breakpoints locally and debug your Lambda functions in real time, as they execute in the cloud.
Troubleshoot complex issues that only surface when your function interacts with other AWS services in a real VPC or with specific IAM permissions.
Accelerate your development cycle and reduce the time spent on manual debugging and iterative deployments.
This session is perfect for serverless developers, architects, and anyone looking to streamline their AWS Lambda development and debugging process. Come prepared to learn and leave with a better way to build on AWS.

2nd Talk: AWS vs. Azure: The Key Differences That Matter

Description:
Think AWS and Azure are practically the same, just with different service names? Think again. As someone who’s worked professionally with both platforms for years, I can tell you—they’re fundamentally different in ways that can significantly impact your projects.

In this session, I’ll share key insights into areas where AWS and Azure diverge, including feature parity, pricing, sustainability, developer experience and serverless capabilities. Whether you’re choosing between providers, managing multi-cloud environments, or seeking to leverage their unique strengths, this talk will give you the knowledge to make smart cloud decisions.
Join me to uncover the key contrasts between AWS and Azure that could save your team time, money, and frustration.
