Why AWS Lambda Pricing Has to Change for the Enterprise
AWS Lambda users pay only when their code is run. This can result in massive cost savings over long-running workloads. The advantages start to disappear quickly when AWS Lambda is employed for batch processing. Enterprises can gain significantly from the scalability of FaaS - yet a price comparison between EC2, Lambda, and Fargate, the AWS-managed container service, reveals an ugly truth.

eBay's UI Framework Marko Adds Optimized Reactivity Model - Q&A with Marko's Development Team
Marko, eBay's performance-focused UI framework, features optimization strategies that are now becoming mainstream (e.g., server-side rendering, progressive and asynchronous rendering, partial hydration). InfoQ discussed with the Marko development team how those performance strategies may differentiate Marko from other frameworks and future performance-minded initiatives in their roadmap.

Testing Quarkus Web Applications: Reactive Messaging, Kafka, and Testcontainers
Quarkus is a full-stack, Kubernetes-native Java framework that supports many coding styles, including reactive programming. Writing clean unit/component/integration tests for Quarkus applications when a reactive approach is used is vitally important. Here we demonstrate testing reactive code, reactive messaging, and full integration testing.

Pathpida Brings Types to Next.js and Nuxt.js Dynamic Routing with Zero Configuration
Pathpida is a library for TypeScript projects to collect dynamic routes in one place. It is a tedious task to do manually. This helps check the existence of routes in large web apps. Pathpida is optimized for Next.js (React) and Nuxt.js (Vue). Pathpida can be added to existing Next.js and Nuxt.js projects without configuration.
