Securing Lambda function URLs using Amazon Cognito, Amazon CloudFront and AWS WAF
Posted on December 31, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Lambda function URLs is a dedicated HTTPs endpoint for a AWS Lambda function. You can configure a function URL to have two methods of authentication: IAM and NONE. IAM authentication means that you are restricting access to the function URL (and in-turn access to invoke the Lambda function) to certain AWS principals (such as roles or users). Authentication type of NONE means that the Lambda function URL has no authentication and is open for anyone to invoke the function. By Marcia Villalba.

How to build a GraphQL server in Python with Graphene
Posted on December 4, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Facebook developed GraphQL during their quest to find a better and more flexible way to work across their data. They found that they could achieve this flexibility with a query-based approach. By defining a schema that the queries can run against, an API based on GraphQL enables clients to make fewer requests while still being able to work with as much (or as little) of the data that's exposed through the query as desired. By Vince Power.
