Today, we are announcing support for AWS Lambda response streaming for .NET Lambda functions. With response streaming, functions can be more responsive by sending data back to the caller incrementally as it becomes available, rather than buffering the entire response in memory before returning it. Why response streaming? With the traditional Lambda invocation model, the […]

In Part 1 of our blog posts for .NET Aspire and AWS Lambda, we showed you how .NET Aspire can be used for running and debugging .NET Lambda functions. In this part, Part 2, we’ll show you how to take advantage of the .NET Aspire programming model for best practices and for connecting dependent resources […]

In a recent post we gave some background on .NET Aspire and introduced our AWS integrations with .NET Aspire that integrate AWS into the .NET dev inner loop for building applications. The integrations included how to provision application resources with AWS CloudFormation or AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) and using Amazon DynamoDB local for […]

We are announcing support for JSON structured logging for the .NET managed runtime. This makes the .NET managed runtime compatible with the previously announced logging controls for AWS Lambda, allowing you to toggle logging format and log levels using the Lambda API. Formatting log messages as JSON documents makes it easier to search, filter, and […]

We are happy to announce the general availability of the Lambda Annotations Framework for .NET.
