There are many use cases that require you to orchestrate workflows across different AWS accounts from one central AWS account. This blog post covers a solution to invoke Step Functions workflows cross account using Amazon API ... Read More
User-defined Webhooks in Puppet Relay with Knative and Ambassador API Gateway
Feed: Puppet.com Blog RSS Feed. Author: ; What is Puppet Relay?Relay is an event-driven automation platform designed to make wrangling diverse operational environments easy. Relay executes workflows, which consist of multiple related steps, to perform actions like opening Jira tickets, merging pull requests, or even deploying an application to a Kubernetes cluster. Relay is built on containerization and leverages Tekton to execute workflows. Each step in a Relay workflow runs an OCI-compatible container image. Unlike conventional workflow automation tools, this gives you the ability to make your own completely custom steps; you’re not restricted to our curated steps or even ... Read More
Secure your APIs with Private Link support for Azure API Management

Feed: Microsoft Azure Blog. Author: Fernando Mejia. Azure API Management is a fully managed service that enables customers to publish, secure, transform, maintain, and monitor APIs. With a few clicks in the Azure portal, you can create an API facade that acts as a “front door” through which external and internal applications can access data or business logic implemented by your custom-built backend services, running on Azure, for example on Azure App Service or Azure Kubernetes Service, or hosted outside of Azure, in a private datacenter or on-premises. Azure API Management handles all the tasks involved in mediating API calls, ... Read More

Amazon ECS Update Service API now supports updating Elastic Load Balancers, Service Registries, Tag Propagation, and ECS Managed Tags
Feed: Recent Announcements. Amazon Elastic Container Services (Amazon ECS) now supports updating Elastic Load Balancers, Service Registries, Tag Propagation, and ECS Managed Tags for an existing ECS service. The added flexibility makes it easier for customers to update their Amazon ECS service configurations, without having to recreate their services, thus reducing operational overhead and potential service disruption. Amazon ECS supports updating service parameter configuration programmatically via UpdateService API or through the AWS Management console. Previously, customers could configure the following parameters only at the time of service creation and could not update them thereafter: loadBalancers, propagateTags, enableECSManagedTags, and serviceRegistries. To update these ... Read More
Using OCI Serverless Functions and API Gateways to create logical dumps of a MySQL Database Service with MySQL Shell
Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Frederic Descamps; When using cloud native application architectures, Functions have an important role for the business logic without managing any infrastructure. Functions is a serverless platform powered by the Fn Project open source engine. These Functions are mostly used to create and run different tasks. They can be executed using Fn Project CLI, OCI CLI or a HTTP request. HTTP requests are useful to invoke Functions from a different service. Usually use to schedule the execution of the function according to a time schedule. Currently, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure does not provide a native mechanism to create ... Read More
ETL orchestration using the Amazon Redshift Data API and AWS Step Functions with AWS SDK integration

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. Extract, transform, and load (ETL) serverless orchestration architecture applications are becoming popular with many customers. These applications offers greater extensibility and simplicity, making it easier to maintain and simplify ETL pipelines. A primary benefit of this architecture is that we simplify an existing ETL pipeline with AWS Step Functions and directly call the Amazon Redshift Data API from the state machine. As a result, the complexity for the ETL pipeline is reduced. As a data engineer or an application developer, you may want to interact with Amazon Redshift to load or query data with a ... Read More

Capturing client events using Amazon API Gateway and Amazon EventBridge

Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: James Beswick. This post is written by Tim Bruce, Senior Solutions Architect, DevAx. Event producers are one of the three main components in an event-driven architecture. Event producers create and publish events to event routers, which send them to event consumers. Any portion of a system, including a mobile or web client, can be an event producer. To extend the event model to your mobile and web clients, you must implement standards for security, messaging formats, and event storage. This post shows how to build a client-enabled event-handling solution. It uses Amazon EventBridge, Amazon API ... Read More
