serverless VS nitric

I don't know any tutorials that cover all of these, but check out: https://cdkpatterns.com/ for 1) https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/v2/guide/cdk_pipeline.html for 2) 3) and 5) https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-cdk-testing.html for 4)

I would like to see re-useable design patterns advocated similar to the terraform/terragrunt modules concepts. Encouraging pulumi.ComponentResource definitions multi environment structure, best practices. The cdk guys have something similar https://cdkpatterns.com/.

While writing this post, the four stacks combined are 129 lines of source code. With the help of the CDK Constructs that are being used this translates to over 1k lines of code in CloudFormation. We are only using L2 constructs here – there is way more constructs available that you can use in the Constructs Hub and also a lot of guidance regarding the usage of CDK over at CDKPatterns.

I use the "Lambda-lith" pattern, primarily because I am using Rust and deploying via CI/CD (codepipeline).

Here is a read of common lambda design pattern https://github.com/cdk-patterns/serverless/blob/main/the-lambda-trilogy/README.md

Level 3 constructs are opinionated units of reusable code which often deliver a service. Open source level 3 constructs are available from AWS Solutions Constructs - an extension to the CDK, CDK Patterns - a library of well-architected patterns, Construct Hub - a library of open-source constructs and some even come out of the box with the CDK - these are appended with 'patterns' to make them identifiable. Two examples are shown below:

If you haven't used the Nitric SDK before, then start with this tutorial.

For all those on the hunt for a framework, Nitric is here for you. It's a multi-language framework that helps teams quickly build cloud applications. Nitric unites backend and infrastructure code and automates the process of provisioning and deploying infrastructure. The first major version brings a bunch of changes including significant improvements to the Nitric CLI to support productive cloud development. There's also new architecture visualizations and a new SDK for building and extending Nitric providers. Congrats to the team on shipping your very first version 🥳.

You may have heard of the open source Nitric framework that my team and I have been developing – it’s a cloud-aware application framework that provides a seamless dev experience and confident cloud deployments. Put simply, Nitric handles the infrastructure and runtime requirements of your application, so you can focus your efforts on building it.

Compare the following diagram to the one shown above. This flow addresses some of the concerns raised previously by using an automation framework to eliminate some of the assets that were originally manually crafted. We’re using our open source Nitric Framework in this example; other tools can be used to automate pieces of this flow as well.

If you haven't used the Nitric SDK before, then start with this tutorial to get your project scaffolded and ready to run.

In this exploration, we created a Profile Management API using Nitric, handled core profile operations, and extended it for image management.

On the server-side, you will typically use Zod validation in your route handlers, immediately after receiving a request. Here's an example using the Nitric framework:

Nitric is a serverless framework for rapidly developing and deploying cloud applications.
