I definitively think that we could turn it into a Pharo success story or something that we can keep on the web site because it is really nice.

I just wanted to thank everyone for their help in getting my pet project further along, so that now I can announce that PharoLambda is now working with the V7 minimal image and also supports post mortem debugging by saving a zipped fuel context onto S3.
This latter item is particularly satisfying as at a recent serverless conference (JeffConf) there was a panel where poor development tools on serverless platforms was highlighted as a real problem.
In our community weâve had these kinds of tools at our fingertips for ages - but I donât think the wider development community has really noticed. Debugging something short lived like a Lambda execution is quite startling, as the current answer is âadd more loggingâ, and we all know that sucks. To this end, Iâve created a little screencast showing this in action - and it was pretty cool because it was a real example I encountered when I got everything working and was trying my test application out.
Iâve also put a bit of work into tuning the excellent GitLab CI tools, so that I can cache many of the artefacts used between different build runs (this might also be of interest to others using CI systems).
The Gitlab project is on: https://gitlab.com/macta/PharoLambda And the screencast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNNCT1hLA3E

Hi - Iâve been playing around with getting Pharo to run well on AWS Lambda. Itâs early days, but I though it might be interesting to share what Iâve learned so far.
Usage examples and code at https://gitlab.com/macta/PharoLambda
With help from many of the folks here, Iâve been able to get a simple example to run in 500ms-1200ms with a minimal Pharo 6 image. You can easily try it out yourself. This seems slightly better than what the GoLang folks have been able to do.
