| Spec-Driven Development in Practice: A AWS Hero Journey | 04 Feb 2026 | 00:59:00 | |
Christian, AWS Hero and Solution Architect at Bundesliga, shares his journey and hard-won lessons from adopting spec-driven development with AI coding assistants at enterprise scale. Learn when to use specs vs vibe coding, how to build effective steering documents, and practical strategies for helping engineering teams transition from traditional development to AI-assisted workflows. Discover the difference between spec-driven and vibe coding approaches, when to use each, and how to build effective steering documents that guide AI assistants. Christian shares enterprise adoption strategies that actually work, including the show-and-tell approach to reduce AI adoption fear, treating AI as a peer teammate, and creating centers of excellence for sharing learnings. We explore custom agents and the single responsibility principle, context engineering over prompt engineering, and dive into exciting re:Invent announcements like Lambda Durable Functions. Whether you're leading engineering teams, exploring AI-assisted development, or looking to optimize your development workflow, this conversation offers practical insights from real-world enterprise implementation. | |||
| Native Speed, Modern Safety: Swift for Backend Development | 29 Jan 2026 | 00:49:01 | |
Join us as we explore Swift beyond iOS with Sebastien Stormacq, AWS Developer Advocate and Swift specialist. Discover why Swift is becoming a compelling choice for server-side development, offering native compilation, memory safety without garbage collection, and modern concurrency features that deliver exceptional performance and cost efficiency. Seb shares how Apple processes billions of daily requests using Swift on AWS infrastructure, achieving 40% better performance and 30% lower costs when migrating services from Java. We dive into the technical advantages that make Swift competitive with traditional backend languages, explore the vibrant server-side ecosystem with frameworks like Vapor and Hummingbird, and discuss practical implementations including serverless architectures on AWS Lambda. Whether you're a Swift developer curious about server-side possibilities, a full-stack developer looking to unify your tech stack, or a backend engineer evaluating language options, this conversation offers practical insights into Swift's capabilities beyond the client. | |||
| Deploying MCP servers on Lambda | 03 Oct 2025 | 00:49:02 | |
Update Oct 25.: After we recorded this episode (July 10th 2025), AWS launched Amazon Bedrock AgentCore (that went in preview on July 16th, 2025) and generally available since Oct. 13rd, 2025. AgentCore is the recommanded solution to deploy your MCP agents on AWS. We keep this episode available as a learning experience but deploying MCP on Lambda is not the recommanded architecture for your production workloads.
In this episode, we dive deep into MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers on AWS Lambda. We explore what MCP is, how it enables AI systems to interact with tools through standardized protocols, and practical implementations on AWS Lambda. The discussion covers authentication mechanisms, deployment strategies, and the future potential of MCP servers as a marketplace for AI capabilities. Whether you're building AI-powered applications or interested in exposing your business capabilities to AI systems, this episode provides valuable insights into the technical aspects and business opportunities of MCP servers. | |||
| Episode 094 – Better Developer Productivity in the Cloud Using Winglang with Elad Ben-Israel | 25 Aug 2023 | 00:47:49 | |
In this episode, Dave and Emily catch up with Elad Ben-Israel, CEO at Wing Cloud
and original creator of the AWS CDK.
Winglang is new programming language and toolchain designed for the cloud from the ground
up. It gives developers a unified way of accessing their cloud infrastructure and code using
a single language, while still being able to run and test inside a local simulator for high
speed iterations.
Elad takes on a historical journey to the original creation of the AWS CDK, the shift from
coding for single machines to modern distributed cloud-based systems, the power of open
source, and the continued evolution of writing software. There may even be an analogy to
burning man and building software as a community.

tuning your OpenSearch clusters. It's a good option for organizations that don't want to
self-manage their OpenSearch clusters, or organizations that don't have the dedicated
resources or expertise to operate large clusters. With OpenSearch Serverless, you can easily
search and analyze a large volume of data without having to worry about the underlying
infrastructure and data management. Jon and Ashok cover how they built OpenSearch
Serverless, how they think about search technology and removing complexity, how developers
can get started with this new feature, and what has got them excited about the future of
search.

| Episode 063 - Announcing Trusted Language Extensions for PostgreSQL | 12 Dec 2022 | 00:17:46 | |
In this episode, Emily and Dave chat with John Dalton, Sr. Product Manager,
Amazon RDS Open Source, and Jonathan Katz, Principal PMT, Amazon RDS Open Source, about the
recent launch of Trusted Language Extensions PostgreSQL. Trusted Language Extensions for
PostgreSQL is an open source development kit for building PostgreSQL extensions that allows
developers to build high performance PostgreSQL extensions and safely run them on your RDS
for PostgreSQL DB instance. By using Trusted Language Extensions (TLE) for PostgreSQL,
developers can create PostgreSQL extensions that follow the documented approach for
extending PostgreSQL functionality. Both Johns discuss building this new service update, and
their approach to open source.
