7 simple rules to help you optimize your Step Functions workflows:🧵#Serverless
1. Apply naming conventions: This makes your workflow easier to understand and maintain. Remember you can use descriptive names e.g. "Tidy Payload for Manual Run" instead of "validatepayload"
2. Input Validation: You can add input validation checks to the state machine to ensure that the input data is in the correct format. This will prevent errors from occurring later in the process.
3. Error Handling: You can add additional error handling mechanisms to the state machine to handle errors that might occur during execution.
4. Logging: Adding logging to the state machine can help you monitor the execution of the workflow and debug any issues that may arise.
5. Metrics: Collecting metrics on the execution of the state machine can help you track its performance and identify any bottlenecks in the process.
6. Versioning: You can version the workflow definition so that you can keep track of changes over time and rollback to previous versions if necessary.
7. Documentation: Finally, it's be a good idea to add documentation to the workflow definition so that others can understand what the state machine is doing and how it works.

Today it’s 7 simple tips for building #Serverless event-driven applications: 🧵

1/7 Identify events and event sources early: Determine the events that matter to your application and identify the sources that generate those events. serverlessland.com/event-driven-a…
2/7 Define an event schema: Create a schema for events that define the type of events, their attributes and the relationship between different types of events. serverlessland.com/event-driven-a…
3/7 Choose an event-driven architecture pattern: Select an architecture pattern that suits your application requirements. Common patterns include event sourcing, CQRS, and pub/sub. Checkout s12d.com/Eda for ideas
