Putting Node.js Serverless Apps into Production without the Pitfalls
Serverless is the new way of creating software. It means moving away from servers and leaving that to the cloud vendor. Instead, you focus on features and business value and use managed cloud services to build powerful applications. Serverless allows you to do more much faster.
But there are plenty of pitfalls, all of which can sour your initial experiences of putting Serverless into production.
This talk covers the highs and lows of building Node.js apps with Serverless. The open source, JavaScript-based SLIC Starter project will be presented, showing how it is used to quickly adopt best practices and get to a successful production deployment without the pain. We'll also show how TypeScript-based Infrastructure as Code is the way forward!

JS � Character Encodings
Character encodings can be confusing for every developer, providing pitfalls even for the most experienced ones, so a lot of the time we want to end up with something that “just works” without an in-depth understanding of the involved concepts. In this talk, Anna will give an overview...
