This is a MASSIVE feature for EventBridge & Step Functions. Makes it super easy to integrate with Container or EC2 workloads — just setup your private API as a target. Fantastic work on this by the team!

Pumped for this! Great job everyone! I kept my lips 🤐 and was working on this for a long time before leaving AWS. VPC workloads for all!

@jeremy_daly @CloudZeroInc @amptdev Congratulations! 🎉

ANNOUNCEMENT TIME!!! 📣 I've joined @CloudZeroInc as Director of Research to lead the team developing their new AI-driven data platform! I'm super excited about this new role, as well as for the future of @amptdev, Off-by-none, and my continued commitment to the cloud and #serverless communities. More details in the post. jeremydaly.com/joining-cloudz…

Huge launch by the Step Functions team! Lots of wishes to simplify .$ .$$ have come true! Congrats!!! Also shout out to @McbainTech for his work on this while & AWS.

@DRo_604 Awesome!!! Congrats! 🚀🎉

Our latest launch for AWS Step Functions! You can now export Infrastructure as Code templates directly from Workflow Studio for CloudFormation and SAM. It also works with Infrastructure Composer. aws.amazon.com/about-aws/what…

@jeremy_daly 😭😭 So sorry to hear this, dogs are so amazing and Poe sounds like the absolute goodest of good boys. Pay the cheese tax as often as you can, thoughts with all of you.

Sad day at the Daly household today. Our 7 year old Golden Retriever/Cocker Spaniel mix, Poe, got his tests results back and it confirmed he has Lymphoma. 😢 He's been a part of our family since he was just a few months old and has been the "best boy" (as my wife would say) ever since. He's been an amazing companion and one of the sweetest, most gentle dogs I've ever known. We decided as a family not to do chemo (we thought it would be selfish of us), so we've started him on prednisone to make him comfortable for the time being. We're hoping to get a few more good weeks with him before we need to say our final goodbyes. 🐾

@nickste @safetycli Super excited to see you jump back into startups!! It’s been a pleasure to work with you and you can still expect to hear from me wherever you are. You helped put EDAs on the map! Go get em!!

After five and a half happy years, today is my last day at AWS! I feel beyond lucky to have worked with such brilliant people, and to have learnt and grown from their input. I'll be joining @safetycli as a cofounder and CPO. More in the thread 🧵

The best ones leave first. Single parent Slack inside AWS reacting to the RTO news:

After an amazing journey at AWS, I’ve officially joined the Stripe team! 🎉 Remote work = ✅ Ambitious goals = ✅ Great leadership = ✅ Excited about the future = ✅ 5 days in the office… well, I’ll leave that to others. 😉 #NewAdventure #Stripe

@AllenHeltonDev My heart breaks, I am so sorry to hear this Allen. I know how much love you have for your daughters and whole family. Please know that I am here for you, my thoughts and all my love goes out to you and your family. ❤️

It's with a heavy heart that I share an update that has turned my life upside down. My world is spinning. This story is hard for me to share, but I could really use the support right now 💙🧡 readysetcloud.io/blog/allen.hel…

@benjamin_l_s I’m not crying, I was just cutting an onion. You’re the best partner, I’ve learnt a ton from you, and I will miss you immensely, I hope to see you as a future customer and I have no doubt you’ll keep the feature requests coming! 😃

I'm leaving AWS! After 5 Awesome years, tomorrow's EDA Day is my final event as an Amazon employee. Very excited about the future (more on that soon). For now, here's the link to snag the last couple of tickets for tomorrow: gotoldn.com/2024-eda-aws-d… #serverless #goto

@AllenHeltonDev 😢

Sad day on my farm - I've had raccoon attacks the past 3 nights taking my flock from 35 down to 2 chickens. I've repaired the run every day but they keep getting in. 😥

@timdoke @DRo_604 got it thank you - and if that's an additional step in your workflow is that acceptable?

What we do now is pass authentication information on the individual worker payload. We do not generate a token. The worker is a c# app that creates an http request based on that auth data with custom headers. So it’s sort of a pass through authentication. Not trying to get too far into the weeds here but what I saw on the connection was either basic auth that uses secrets manager but seems to allow custom headers, an api key or oath. All those seem fine if u are the source of truth for authentication. But, we are not. What I would envision is a transform step that takes the auth information and custom headers and then send that into the http endpoint task along with the body and http method somehow.

🚀AWS Step Functions gets SaaSy! By popular demand, you can now call HTTP endpoints directly from your workflow and test them using the new testState API. #reinvent2023 aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/exte…

@timdoke @DRo_604 Thanks for the feedback. You need to provide a ConnectionArn, that handles authentication, as part of the HTTP Task. Alternative is passing in headers yourself, but you still need a Connection. Would you want to supply the tokens yourself or use a service like Cognito?

@DRo_604 It seems slightly difficult if you need to use dynamic custom authentication. Is there no simple option to just supply the url, all headers, the http method, and the body? It seems you can customize all of these except authentication and customized headers relatively simply.

Fantastic re:Invent that wrapped with a dinner surrounded by friends. #serverless #reinvent2023

This wins for best location (so far) that I’ve had a customer meeting at. #onlyinvegas

I'm a big fan of event-driven architecture and using events for communication across organisational boundaries 💡 Yesterday we released EventBridge Stripe integrations and HTTP integrations with Step Functions ❤️ Super powerful patterns emerge! We can use events and orchestration to communicate between systems. Direct integrations into EventBridge allow us to focus on our business logic vs integration code between the systems. Then using Step Functions we can orchestrate logic to go back out to Stripe if we want (using the new HTTPS endpoints) Love it! 🚀

Why not one more launch for Step Functions, happy re:invent! 🚀🚀🚀

Guess who’s in Vegas and presenting tomorrow (Nov 28) at 1pm PST on Elevating workflows with generative AI ——me! Come check it out there’s still room! hub.reinvent.awsevents.com/attendee-porta… #stepfunctions #reinvent2023 #bedrock #Serverless #genAI
