**Talk Details**

**Pioneering Serverless Payments at The LEGO Group**
By Luke Hedger

The LEGO Group was a super early adopter of the serverless mindset and associated technology. It is time to review how one of its core products continues to operate and innovate 3 years on.

We will take a look at the serverless, event-driven architecture powering The LEGO Group's payments platform, Brickbank, and how it facilitates e-commerce on a global scale.

We'll also assess how a mature serverless application remains up-to-date with constantly evolving best practices, industry trends and feature requests.

**It's about the journey and the API Destination**
By Clara Villa

What is it like when someone starts their journey into the world of serverless? Join Clara as she inspires us with her journey and presents a case study on replacing SNS topics with EventBridge API Destinations to forward CloudWatch alarms to the MS Teams channel.

**Attitude of Iteration**
By Eric Johnson

Challenges are a very real part of daily life. Some challenges are very
apparent and others are less apparent but no less of a hurdle that must be jumped. As someone who was born different and has been challenged through life, I have a very interesting view on hitting challenges head on. I also like to laugh as I deal with these challenges.

In this session we will joke our way through having an attitude of iteration in how we deal with challenges in our personal lives AND in our work lives. Prepare to laugh, commiserate, and face your challenges!
