We are increasingly seeing customers wanting to build Internet-scale applications that require diverse data models. Use cases such as gaming, ad tech, and IoT lend themselves particularly well to the key-value data model where the access patterns require low-latency Gets/Puts for known key values. Purpose-built databases.

JavaScript-Heavy # Since at least 2015, building JavaScript-first websites has been a predictably terrible idea, yet most of the sites I trace on a daily basis remain mired in script.

to run Google Lighthouse audits via the command line, save the reports they generate in JSON format and then compare them so web performance can be monitored as the website grows and develops. It allows you to quickly audit a website in a number of key areas which together can form a measure of its overall quality.

Two areas where Lambda is driving a lot of innovation is Mobile and the Internet of Things (IoT). Synchronous requests allow mobile and IoT apps to move data transformations and analysis to the cloud and make it easy for any application or web service to use Lambda to create back-end functionality.

Modern browsers like Chrome and Samsung Internet support a long list of features that make web apps more powerful and keep users safer. The confusion that reliably results is the consequence of an inversion of the power relationship between app and website. Both pass all eighteen feature tests in Thomas Steiner's excellent ???

For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. Modern CPUs strongly favor lower latency of operations with clock cycles in the nanoseconds and we have built general purpose software architectures that can exploit these low latencies very well. Where to go from here?
