Simon is joined by Stephen Liedig to discuss the evolution of serverless technology and its impact on application development, exploring benefits like scalability, cost optimization, and faster dev cycles. They delve into key services and concepts in serverless design, including state machines, event-driven architectures, and observability, highlighting the flexibility and optimization opportunities offered by serverless architecture.

- Get started with AWS Serverless (https://aws.amazon.com/serverless) and Application Integration (https://aws.amazon.com/products/application-integration) on the AWS website.

- Visit Serverless Land (https://serverlessland.com/) to get the latest information, blogs, videos, code, and learning resources for AWS Serverless. Learn to use and build apps that scale automatically on low-cost, fully-managed serverless architecture.

- Implement Serverless best practices and increase your developer velocity with Powertools for AWS (https://powertools.aws.dev/)

- Learn by doing! Check out the Serverless Patterns Workshop (https://catalog.workshops.aws/serverless-patterns) to build your first serverless microservice to retrieve data from DynamoDB with Lambda and API Gateway.

- Dive even deeper with the Serverless Developer Experience workshop (https://catalog.workshops.aws/serverless-developer-experience) to get hands on experience leveraging serverless application integration patterns, event-driven architectures and orchestration!
