Best practices for building Serverless are still emerging, and the true way is not yet out there for all to follow. This talk will explore the layers of best practices and take you on a journey to the one true Serverless Best practice we should all start with from day one.

The Serverless landscape on AWS is riddled with opinion and frameworks - all of which are touted as the best one to use - this fracture within the community does not help anyone. This talk will take a journey through the current best practices at various solution layers within the serverless landscape and then bring it all back to the one true best practice everyone should be adopting from the get-go of working with Serverless. This is not about framework wars, language comparisons or how to build AWS lambda code at scale - this is about exposing the true list of considerations for starting out on a serverless journey and a pragmatic look at where you should start and the pro's con's to be considered - Architecture first, not code first! And of course, the real best practice for your project? ..... well it depends!
