#569: Simplifying Kubernetes on bare metal with EKS Anywhere
Amazon EKS Anywhere is a deployment option for Amazon EKS that allows customers to create and operate Kubernetes clusters on customer-managed infrastructure, supported by AWS. With support for bare metal deployments on Amazon EKS Anywhere, customers now have a broader choice of infrastructure for running Kubernetes on-premises. As customers modernize their applications, they want to use Kubernetes consistently between their existing on-premises bare metal infrastructure and the cloud. Running Kubernetes on bare metal infrastructure is complex, and customers spend time, effort and money on infrastructure operations instead of focusing on business innovation. In this podcast, you will learn how Amazon EKS Anywhere on bare metal enables customers to automate all steps - from bare metal hardware provisioning to Kubernetes cluster operations - using a bundled open source toolset built on the foundation of Tinkerbell and Cluster API.

#567: AWS Lambda SnapStart
Learn about the newly released AWS Lambda SnapStart for Java, delivering up to 10x faster function startup performance. SnapStart is a performance optimization feature that initializes your function ahead of time and caches a snapshot of its execution environment. When your function is then invoked - or scales up - AWS Lambda resumes execution from that snapshot, instead of initializing your function from scratch, significantly improving cold starts. You can enable SnapStart for new or existing Java-based serverless applications such as financial computations, machine learning inference, synchronous APIs, or data processing.
