Episode notes
Incremental Feature Improvements
- AWS continues to add small, practical limits and features across services rather than sweeping changes.
- These tweaks solve real operational pain without changing core cloud complexity.
Winning Developers Where They Work
- AWS is integrating with developer platforms to reduce friction for newer devs.
- The vendor aims to host workloads where modern developers already work to win adoption.
Migrate Off Workarounds
- Use the new Lambda cross-account DynamoDB Streams feature to simplify cross-account replication.
- Replace fragile SQS/SNS-based workarounds now that native cross-account access exists.
