That was a very thorough explanation, I'm sure it will be helpful to anyone looking to get started with serverless computing.

Since this is the last article in the series, have you given any thought to what you might write about next?

Thanks so much for your appreciation β€” it really means a lot! 🌟

Actually, this isn't the last article β€” I still have a few more planned for this series.

After that, I’m thinking of starting new articles like Data Warehousing using MySQL and Big Data Analytics using Hadoop Just figuring out which one to dive into first!

If you have any suggestions on what you'd like me to cover next (or any other topic you think would be interesting), feel free to let me know. Would love to hear your thoughts! ✨

Ah, I saw (6 Part Series) and no notes about the next article so just assumed.

If you have any suggestions on what you'd like me to cover next

I'm just along for the ride. You should write on whatever topic you are most passionate about. Hadoop and Big Data is something I never really got into but it definitely would fit well with the theme you have going here.

Such a great explanation with multiple examples makes it super easy to understand. from creating the lambda function to configuring it and then invoking it, everything was so well structured.

[one little advice: the explanation was spot on but somewhat in the middle (specifically in the serverless computing part) things went bit repetitive (a/to me).]

overall, amazing work :)

I'm really glad that you found the explanation helpful!

Really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts β€” it honestly means a lot. :)

Quick question though β€” when you mentioned it felt a bit repetitive, were you talking about this part?

What is AWS Lambda and Serverless Computing?

(the detailed explanation about AWS Lambda, serverless computing, and key features)

Just wanna make sure I got you right, so I can update it and also keep it in mind for future articles.

Thanks again for the awesome feedback! πŸ™Œ

Yup , i mean till the time I reach to that section , there I found it bit repetitive.

Like you said that it helps you do serverless computing and scale up your architecture…. Etc . All these things have been said earlier with fair amount of explanation.

Updated the article!

I restructured it for better flow, added more real-world examples, and removed repetitive parts. I also removed the summary since it felt unnecessarily long.

I expanded the Practical Real-World Example section by adding real company examples β€” I thought including actual companies would make it even more relatable and impactful! (Check out the Real Companies Using AWS Lambda πŸš€ part!)

Let me know what you think of these updates!

Thanks again for your suggestions @denyme24 β€” they definitely helped me improve the article!
