Orchestrating at Scale with AWS Step Functions

Orchestrating at Scale with AWS Step Functions with Ross Rhodes

Description:

Considering a migration to serverless technology in AWS, or planning to develop new serverless applications from the ground up? Ranging from Lambda functions to DynamoDB tables to SQS queues, we can take advantage of many AWS-managed serverless resources. If we distribute logic across multiple resources, how do we reliably coordinate them to make workflows that bring value to our customers? Reflecting on recent projects achieving this, Ross dives into the application of AWS Step Functions: the benefits, the costs, and the lessons learned during development.
