Serverless in production, an experience report

AWS Lambda has changed the way we deploy and run software, but this new serverless paradigm has created new challenges to old problems - how do you test a cloud-hosted function locally? How do you monitor them? What about logging and config management? And how do we start migrating from existing architectures?

In this talk Yan and Domas will discuss solutions to these challenges by drawing from real-world experience running Lambda in production and migrating from an existing monolithic architecture.

Serverless security: defence against the dark arts

Our serverless applications are more secure by default, since AWS has taken over the security of both the infrastructure as well as the operation system. Known vulnerabilities such as spectre and meltdown are patched without us having to lift a finger.

But there is still a large attack surface in our application code, and the OWASP top 10 list is as relevant as ever. Attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) can still plague us, and our dependencies can be compromised to steal sensitive data.

Join us in this session as we discuss many of the security risks that serverless teams still have to face, and some of the leading practices to make your serverless application more secure.
