Word from the author 👨‍💻

Amused with the pre:invent releases that have been rolling out in the last few days!

In the last few days, I was talking about EventBridge and SaaS product integrations at AWS DevDay Bengaluru 2022 and coincidently, there have been so many EventBridge-focused announcements. And ICYMI, I also presented at AWS UG Montenegro about Level up your Serverless workflows with AWS Step Functions.

With re:Invent in 2 weeks and some ACDs still happening, it's so many things happening! I'm going to leave you with the thought - "Attend, meet, learn and network!"

Until next time, happy building on Serverless! 🚀🚀
