Where Software Development Meets Cloud Infrastructure

AWS's new support for origin modifications using CloudFront Functions offers an efficient way to dynamically route requests to the nearest origin, reducing latency and improving performance without relying on Lambda@Edge. This feature enables faster, more cost-effective content delivery for global applications by allowing custom logic to optimize traffic routing. Learn how this approach can streamline your CDN strategy and enhance user experience worldwide.

Database costs in cloud environments have long been a challenge, particularly during periods of inactivity where resources sit idle but still incur charges. AWS has addressed this with Aurora Serverless v2's new scale-to-zero capability, allowing databases to automatically pause after a configurable period of inactivity and resume within seconds when needed. This feature is particularly valuable for development environments, internal tools, and seasonal applications, potentially significantly reducing costs for databases used primarily during business hours.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
