One of the biggest engineering costs you can reduce is developer-thumb-twiddling. Brought our frontend CI time down from 8 mins to 25 secs by parallelizing on AWS Lambda (@lamb_ci). Each Lambda tests every nth file (testing/formatting/linting 3k files over 13 sites).
@lamb_ci Oh yeah, that includes testing the branch itself as well as it merged-into-master. Now I just have to figure out how to stop running into @github API limits 😅

Official Node.js v10.x runtime support on AWS Lambda! aws.amazon.com/about-aws/what… Supported on docker-lambda too (and AWS SAM CLI). Many interesting things about this release, strap in:
1. It's "10.x", so only the semver major is pinned. This is a Good Thing™, unlike the previous releases ("8.10", "6.10", "4.3") where AWS fell behind official Node.js releases because they pinned the minor. No more missing out on feature updates 👍
