We’re heading to AWS Summit London 2025 where we're not just attending - we’re taking to the stage.
Join us at ExCeL London on 30th April, where thousands of like-minded engineers will gather to explore the latest in AWS technologies. From cloud-native innovation to scalable software delivery, the Summit is a chance to connect, learn and be inspired - and we’re proud to be right at the heart of it.
The joy of serverless .net?
Speaker: Matthew Wilson
In 2024, we embarked on a journey to build a Serverless Health Insurance platform on AWS. As TypeScript developers, we were apprehensive when our customer requested we use .NET. However, the .NET team at AWS have provided only a few options for integrating the .NET framework with Lambda, we've discovered that less options caused increased simplicity.
We will look at our project setup, how we configure our Lambda functions to make the most of the tools on offer from AWS like PowerTools and the Mock Lambda Test Tool. We will look at whether you should use AOT or SnapStart or both? We will share the simplicity of running a single Lambda function that runs a Minimal API and the benefits this has for the developer experience.
Lessons learnt from maintaining serverless applications
Speaker: Niall Keys
Serverless maintenance challenges: traffic spikes, observability issues, long-term stability. I'll share experiences maintaining a feature-complete Serverless app at Instil. Serverless lives up to the hype, but complexities around maintainability remain. Learn how to ensure your deployed Serverless workloads run smoothly for years to come, despite potential unforeseen challenges.
Let's connect
We're always up for good conversation - especially when it's about building software for the future. If you’re heading to the Summit and want to chat about cloud, modernisation or what it’s like to work with (or for) Instil, come find us. We’ll be there, sleeves rolled up and ready to talk shop.
