Code Like A Girl·2yHow I created an AWS System to crush the Architect exam
The post shares insights on building a notification system using AWS services to help revise for the AWS Solutions Architect Certification. The system sends PowerPoint slides as WhatsApp messages using Lambda, S3, EventBridge, and Twilio, assisting in timely and structured revision. The architecture is scalable and can be used for any revision needs.
Web Dev Cody·2yThis is the coolest side project I've worked on
A project is described that allows users to create videos based on written stories, focusing initially on scary stories but aiming to expand to any type of story. The process involves breaking the story into segments, generating AI-powered images for each segment using OpenAI and Replicate, and then creating a video by stitching these segments together with Lambda functions. The project also aims to include features like background music and other enhancements. Future improvements are being considered, such as using GPU-optimized EC2 instances or rewriting code in faster programming languages like Go or Rust.
Medium·2yMastering Pipes and Filters: A Messaging System Pattern
The Pipes and Filters pattern simplifies building complex, scalable, and maintainable processing pipelines by breaking them into independent, reusable units called filters. Each filter performs a specific task, and the results are passed through channels called pipes. This approach enhances modularity, scalability, throughput, and code reuse while addressing common problems with monolithic processing architectures. However, it introduces complexities around system error handling, cost, latency, and monitoring.
