This is the story of how an undocumented API call became an official one.
GitHub does not support any ARM GitHub Actions Runner. So what now? Build it within your AWS environment! The results are pretty cool: You have full control over the Runners and have no more time constraints like long-running workflows that consume Runners usage minutes. I will guide you through the basics of creating an AWS EC2 instance and installing the minimum requirements on the OS for having a running GitHub Actions Runner.
When implementing REST APIs in AWS there is one service that always comes to mind - Amazon API Gateway. Even though feature-rich, properly documenting your API may become a time-consuming task relatively quickly. In this post, I would like to show you how you can use Swagger UI in combination with a serverless deployment to automatically generate interactive and up-to-date documentation for your APIs.
AWS BI Solution Amazon QuickSight is a powerful tool to build interactive analyses or dashboards. In this blog post we will see how to get started with designing such analyses.
In hybrid architectures, serverless functions work together with container solutions. Lambda logs have to be translated when you don`t choose CloudWatch Logs. The old way of doing this is through subscription filters using additional Lambda functions for log transformation. With the Lambda Telemetry API there is a more elegant, performant and cost-effective way. I am using Grafana Loki as a working example and show you how to build a working Lambda-Loki Telemetry APi extension.
Possibilities of using AWS Step Functions are widespread. Most times, filtering out the necessary content is done within Lambda Functions or other services. With this blog, I will show you how to prevent this within Lambda using in- and output filters in AWS Step Functions.
Recently I got a question on how to find boot volumes of AWS instances. While I did not get any background on the purpose of this, I found the task interesting enough to dig a bit deeper. As in “down to the binary level”. Interested?
Artificial Intelligence has come a long way since its inception, and today we have AI services that can perform tasks with remarkable accuracy and efficiency. One such AI service is ChatGPT, a cutting-edge language model developed by OpenAI that can generate human-like text responses to questions and commands. With the ability to process vast amounts of information in real-time, ChatGPT is revolutionizing the way we interact with technology, making it possible to receive quick and accurate answers to a wide range of questions, without the need for human intervention.
