don’t write your own deployment framework

no extensibility

great for infratructure
(VPCs, networking, etc.)
terribly unproductive for
constructing a serverless
application

DON’T automate what you don’t understandDON’T automate what you don’t understand

beware of vanity features

A brogrammer is a male programmer
with traits often associated with
fraternity brothers (bros) …
Brogrammers

“Python is not real code. Real programmers use Java.”

“…the c in iac is stand for code while in Serverless it’s stand for
conﬁguration because the serverless.yml is no really a code”

qualities you should care about IAC

syntactic correctness implies
semantic correctness
only one way to interpret things

concise

interoperable

Picking a deployment framework because it lets you write Javascript is
like picking a car because it has red seats. Your priorities are WRONG!

use middleware to auto-capture incoming correlation IDs

extract correlation IDs from
invocation event, and store them in
the correlation-ids module
reset

intercepts and extracts correlation IDs

automatically include extracted correlation IDs

HTTP and AWS SDK clients to auto-forward correlation IDs on

DON’T leave debug logging ON in production

have to redeploy ALL the
functions along the call path to
collect all relevant debug logs

sampling decision is forwarded on
and followed by the entire call chain
