Create AWS serverless workflows by using the AWS SDK for Java

-

 You can create an AWS serverless workflow by using the AWS SDK for Java and AWS Step Functions. Each workflow step is implemented by using an AWS Lambda function. Lambda is a compute service that enables you to run code without provisioning or managing servers.

Note: You can create Lambda functions in various programming languages. For this tutorial, Lambda functions are implemented by using the Lambda Java API. For more information about Lambda, see What is AWS Lambda.

In this tutorial, you create a workflow that creates support tickets for an organization. Each workflow step performs an operation on the ticket. This tutorial shows you how to use Java to process workflow data. For example, you'll learn how to read data that's passed to the workflow, how to pass data between steps, and how to invoke AWS services from the workflow.



To read this AWS Tutorial, see https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples/tree/master/javav2/usecases/creating_workflows_stepfunctions.

 I work on AWS Java code that helps AWS developers. Included in this role is working with AWS Services such as S3, DynamoDB, EC2, Lambda functions, and so on.

Building and Deploying a Fargate Container that runs Python and performs CloudWatch Logging

-

This guide walks you through building and deploying an AWS Fargate container that runs a Python script. The container will be tagged as the latest version, pushed to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR), and configured to log messages to CloudWatch Logs. The process includes setting up the Dockerfile, creating the Python script, building and pushing the Docker image, and configuring AWS services to ensure your container runs smoothly on Fargate. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a running Fargate service that logs information to CloudWatch Logs, allowing you to monitor the status and output of your containerized application in real time. NOTE - In this guide, when you see aws_account_id replace it with your AWS account number and region with your AWS region.  Step-by-Step Guide Overview Setting up the Dockerfile Define a Dockerfile that uses Amazon Linux 2023 as a base image, installs Python, sets up the environment, and configures the CloudWatch logging agent.

Automate Your API Gateway Setup with Boto3: Rendering HTML from Lambda

-
Creating RESTful endpoints using the AWS Management Console can quickly become frustrating — especially when dealing with API Gateway. If you've ever felt like the Console experience is too slow for repeatable tasks, you're not alone. In this post, we’ll walk through a Python script using the boto3 library that automates the creation of an AWS API Gateway REST API backed by a Lambda function — and returns HTML, not JSON. This makes it ideal for rendering mobile-friendly forms or web content directly from serverless logic. Why Use Python Over the Console? Repeatability : Run your script anytime without clicking through dozens of console menus. Version Control : Store and track API configurations in Git. Speed : Automate CORS setup, deployment stages, permissions — in seconds. Precision : Avoid human error by defining everything in code. Use Case This script will: Create a REST API in API Gateway. Add a /form route with a GET method. Integrat...

Setting up an AWS Cognito User Pool and building a React login component involves several steps. After you follow this guide, you will have a React component that lets a user log into the application using AWS Cognito. Setting Up AWS Cognito User Pool Log in to AWS Management Console and navigate to the Amazon Cognito service. Click on "Create a User Pool". Provide a name for your user pool. Configure Sign-in Options. Choose Username as the primary method of user identification. Optionally, allow email and/or phone numbers as aliases. Configure Password Policy. Define the minimum length and strength (e.g., uppercase, numbers, special characters). Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) if needed. Choose User Attributes like email or phone number to store additional user information. Configure App Clients In the User Pool, go to the "App clients" section and create a new app client. Disable secret generation for public clients like a React app....
