Aaron is a Developer Advocate at Microsoft with a passion for JavaScript, .NET, whacky ideas and running long distances.

The serverless paradigm focuses on business problems and containers are the infrastructure abstraction of choice for most developers. With AWS Lambda container support, it is now possible to combine the two worlds to focus on business problems with the certainty of immutable infrastructure and unprecedented levels of code flexibility/portability. What does this brave new world of serverless containers on AWS looks like? How easy is it to implement/migrate? Which use cases are suitable? Let’s dive deep and find out!
Yun Zhi Lin, a.k.a Mr Serverless is a veteran hands-on architect and evangelist of the serverless gospel since 2016. Yun writes for the AFR, The Australian and A Cloud Guru on the topics of cloud transformation and has spoken at ServerlessConf, AWS Summit, Serverless Days and various Security/Container Debates.
