As part of our expanding relationship with Amazon, we are excited to announce that Stackery is now recognized as Amazon Linux 2 Ready Partner, part of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Service Ready Program. This designation recognizes that we are certified to run on Amazon Linux 2, the next generation of Amazon Linux, a Linux server operating system from AWS.
AWS offers the ability to login to a web UI dashboard. In this dashboard, you can add, edit, and deploy various cloud resources. When I was first getting started with AWS, this is where I began for two reasons: My very first full-time job as a Software Engineer was on a small enough team that all of our infrastructure was setup using the AWS console in a single AWS account.
We are excited to announce a new integration to help developers add partner solutions to their serverless applications. AWS recently released Lambda Extensions to allow Lambda to augment the Function invocation lifecycle. Extensions from AWS, AWS Lambda Ready partners, and open source projects are useful for a wide range of use cases. For example, Extensions simplify a development workflow by automatically instrumenting Lambda functions or deploying operational tools without needing code changes.
Deploying a stack into AWS is at the core of what Stackery helps you do. So much so that Stackery users deployed over 10,000 times last month! For the most part, this has been a manually executed process in our Web UI or command-line client. As teams grow and take on more work, fast and consistent deployments are key to scaling effectively. That’s why we’ve been working this year on continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) features, tailor-built for serverless applications.
Stackery is focused on helping developers leverage the power of AWS managed services. Our secure delivery platform is used to ship Lambda functions, HTTP Gateways, Aurora database clusters, and many more services which you can view usage of in Anna’s blog on the topic. Recently, I noticed an emerging workload running on our platform: the JAMstack. That’s a term for web applications composed primarily of JavaScript, APIs, and Markup.
Information security (infosec) is a broad field. Its practitioners behave more like artists than engineers. After all, the mandate for security is not “do X”, but instead “ensure no one can do X, Y, Z, ɑ, β, ɣ, etc.”. The array of possibilities leading to infosec failure are vast. It’s like trying to prove a negative, thus making the task near impossible. On one hand we have an impossible task, on the other we have the affordance of time.
I’m a bit of a data nerd. And like many fortunate people, I’m still working from and generally staying home and have a lot spare time on my hands. So what does that combination result in? Graphs!
A few weeks ago, Stackery had the pleasure of participating in a webinar with leaders from AWS and MasterStream ERP, a telecom-quoting company that has quite the architectural modernization story to tell due to their adoption of serverless with Stackery. Our very own Farrah Campbell (Ecosystems Director) sat down for a fireside chat with Santiago Cardenas (Sr.
There are so many early serverless adopters and pioneers who many of us in the community know well: AWS heroes, in-demand speakers, and celebrated community organizers with thousands of followers, popular Twitch channels, and full speaking dockets. It’s a fantastic idea to follow these folks because they are known for a reason.We cover them regularly at Stackery!
Today we’re proud to share that Stackery has achieved the AWS Lambda Ready designation for continuous integration and delivery! This differentiates Stackery’s secure serverless delivery platform as fully integrated with AWS Lambda. It also shows our existing and prospective customers that Stackery is a uniquely valuable serverless platform and member of the AWS Partner Network (APN).
