SHOW NOTES:

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Before we dive into the work you’re doing with Serverless, let’s talk about your background. 

Topic 2 - Let’s begin with “What is Serverless at AWS in 2021?” Sometimes it’s Lambda, sometimes it's a database, sometimes it's a CDN edge service. When is it App-Centric and when is it NoOps-centric?

Topic 3 - AWS Lambda has expanded in functionality quite a bit over the years. Walk us through how it’s evolved across languages, event-sources, functions vs. containers, etc. 

Topic 4 - How do you think about Serverless use-cases? What are common usage patterns? 

Topic 5 - For a while, Lambda was mostly focused within the AWS ecosystem. Is it expanding to include 3rd-party services, or custom-built tools from customers/companies? 

Topic 6 - We’ve done a couple recent shows about event-driven applications. I tend to think about Serverless (or FaaS) as mostly event-driven apps. How is that space evolving?
