Today, we’re talking to Yan, who is a principal engineer at DAZN. Also, he writes blog posts and is a course developer. His insightful, engaging, and understandable content resonates with various audiences. And, he’s an AWS serverless hero!

Some of the highlights of the show include:

  • Educate others and share your knowledge; Yan does, as an AWS hero
  • Chaos Engineering Meeting Serverless: Figuring out what types of failures to practice for depends on what services you are using
  • Environment predicated on specific behaviors may mean enumerating bad things that could happen, instead of building a resilient system that works as planned
  • API Gateway: Confusing for users because it can do so many different things; what is the right thing to do, given a particular context, is not always clear
  • Now, serverless feels like a toy, but good enough to run production workflow; future of serverless - will continue to evolve and offer more flexibility
