Topics include Lambda runtimes, layers, extensions, remote debugging via AWS Toolkit in VS Code, Lambda Powertools for standardized logging/metrics/traces, third-party observability integrations (New Relic, OpenTelemetry), and the broader serverless ecosystem beyond Lambda (Step Functions, EventBridge, API Gateway, Fargate). The speaker emphasizes that observability should be built in from day one and that modern tooling has dramatically simplified the serverless development workflow. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
