#AWS X-Ray is great, but I like to avoid logging in to the console as much as I can, so here's a brand new CLI tool for you to find and analyse your traces and really quickly find the root cause of your bugs. 💾npmjs.com/package/@mhlab… #serverless

Word from the author 👨‍💻

Thanks all for the support and the feedback that I've been receiving off-late.

While we continue on the journey of ensuring applications are scalable and maintainable, Infrastructure as Code becomes an important aspect and this month on The Zac's Show Talking AWS co-hosted with Arshad Zackeriya we talked about IaC and how to deploy with Terraform. If you want us to cover any specific topics, we are happy to take them up. Feel free to DM us.

Reach out to me if any queries on AWS or Serverless in general over Twitter or LinkedIn.

Until next time, happy building on AWS and Go Serverless!!
