Introduction You’ve probably heard about the Model Context Protocol (MCP) by now — an emerging standard for connecting AI agents to external data sources and tools. I wanted to explore building a serverless HTTP-based MCP server using the typical APIGW + Lambda pattern that is common in serverless applications, i.e. the way some MCP server provider might want to host MCP servers for public consumption. When thinking about which tools the MCP server should have, I wondered how hard it would be to convert an existing REST API into an MCP server - especially given some standard specifications like OpenAPI. ...

Introduction This post is a follow-up to the previous post on Lambda Functions with Go and CDK. In this post, we’ll go through deploying a Rust-based AWS Lambda function using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK). We’ll focus on the developer workflow: how to get started, wire up your Rust Lambda, and use CDK to manage your infrastructure as code. If you’re already familiar with Lambda as a service, this guide will help you get productive with Rust and CDK quickly. ...

Introduction AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service that lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. Lambdas are very flexible because you can run them on a schedule, in response to events, or even as an API endpoint that responds to an HTTP request. In this post, we’ll look at how to create a Lambda function using Go and the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) - with a focus on using CDK to speed up the development process and improve operational efficiency. ...
