Building and Monitoring Serverless Apps With AWS and Datadog

Serverless computing allows developers to focus their time on building applications and improving time-to-market while taking advantage of the reduced operational load by abstracting away underlying infrastructure management. However, designing and managing serverless applications can be complex as they involve multiple functions that interact not only with each other but with other managed cloud resources. And monitoring serverless applications introduces additional unique challenges due to their distributed nature.

Join AWS and Datadog to discuss best practices for designing and building serverless applications to remove the complexity and take advantage of the benefits of serverless architecture. We will also cover how you can leverage Datadog to gain visibility into your serverless applications and ensure they are secure, reliable and highly performant.

You'll learn:

The benefits and challenges of serverless architectures and applications
The unique challenges of monitoring serverless applications
