Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

💔 Goodbye Cold Starts ❤️Hello Proactive Initialization
Lamby will now publish CloudWatch Embedded Metrics in the Lamby namespace with a custom dimension for each application's name. Captured metrics include counts for Cold Starts vs. Proactive Initializations. Here is an example running sum of 3 days of data for a large Rails application in the us-east-1 region.

Question: How to you handle errors in your lambda ?
I was looking into CloudWatch Embedded Metrics - which is a format that converts logs into cloudwatch metrics automatically.

Lambda Powertools TypeScript is Generally Available
Often when it comes to metrics, we think about CPU, latency and other operational metrics and AWS services usually provide those out of the box. This kind of thinking can be flawed when we end up having to use 3rd parties such as google analytics to infer critical business events. A simpler solution is to have the application emit a metric when a business event (say a customer signup) occurs. We have a few options for doing this: We can use aws-sdk, we can use the aws-embedded-metrics lib and now we can use Powertools Metrics. Which is the best? Let's see.

Observability Best Practices when running FastAPI in a Lambda
Let's explore the next core utility in Lambda Powertools, the Metrics utility. This utility lets you easily push metrics to CloudWatch by taking care of all the necessary boilerplate. It works asynchronously by using Amazon CloudWatch Embedded Metrics Format, by logging the metrics to stdout. It also aggregates all metrics from each invocation to save on the number of calls to CloudWatch.

How to report CloudWatch metrics without AWS SDK
To make it easier to create such an object, AWS has provided libraries for Node.js, Python, Java, and .NET. The above example using the AWS SDK can now be written as follows:

First Look at Lambda Powertools TypeScript
Custom metrics have a pricing structure which can be expensive. Embedded Metrics Format can help manage the cost and is supported by Lambda Powertools TypeScript. Again, the docs here are pretty good, so no need for me to break it down. Instead let's look at the experience. I've added a custom metric of "collectionSuccess" to my collectionSuccess function. In my hypothetical app, some payments wind up in collections and here I'm marking whether or not the collection resulted in a payment.

How To Debug AWS Lambda: A Detailed Overview
You can use metrics to aid debugging by adding them to your dashboards that we talked about earlier. It’s also possible to add custom metrics, and there are many libraries and tools (e.g. node, python, etc) which can help you do this.

Ask HN: Is it ok to place an ad for my startup in my OSS?
Hi, I'm the creator of serverless-offline (https://github.com/dherault/serverless-offline), a NPM package for local serveless development on AWS.
I'm building a cool product and intend to launch Q1 2023. To gain traction from my target customers, I plan to place a discrete ad at the launch of every serverless-offline instance.
Does it seem like an ok move to you? Or is it something that repels you?
Best,

How to build a tech product fast
As the creator of serverless-offline, I am well placed to tell you that this is the time-effective solution. Plus, it costs way less than other solutions at smaller scales. But, again, going Kubernetes or otherwise will be a problem for the future.

Serverless monitoring — the good, the bad and the ugly
What if I didn’t need to push code to AWS every time I wanted to test something? All heroes don’t wear capes. Like a knight in shining armor, Serverless Offline comes barging in to save the day! At least now I can test all my code locally before pushing it to AWS. That’s a relief.

Migrating a classic Express.js to Serverless Framework
With classic Express servers, you can use a simple node script to get the server up and running to test locally. Serverless wants to be run in the AWS ecosystem making it. Lucky for us, David Hérault has built and continues to maintain serverless-offline allowing us to emulate our functions locally before we deploy.

3 Steps To Faster Serverless Development
With the serverless offline plugin you can speed up local dev is by emulating AWS lambda and API Gateway locally when developing your Serverless project.
-
Stop using a local environment to develop Serverless applications
Those mocks are by definition not real services so there are some behavior differences between the local environment and the cloud provider. For example, AWS API Gateway emulated by serverless-offline doesn't handle VTL locally the same as AWS does.

A magical AWS serverless developer experience
serverless-offline (https://github.com/dherault/serverless-offline) is a great tool to use for local development of serverless applications.
It's not a complete mirror image of what you get but it's close enough in my experience.
