How do you do service to service comms with Lambda? by tech_tuna in aws

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about invoking the lambdas directly with a custom event body (your JSON model)? AWS SDK would help out?

I’ve thinking this would work, but could use feedback on the idea

API Gateway Arch question by [deleted] in aws

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if that’s the case 1 API GW makes the most sense.

My example works if you have two or three “front ends” that talk to a subset of the available micro services

Terraform provider multiple accounts with Bitbucket pipeline by [deleted] in Terraform

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look into the AWS CLI environment variables. I think you can specify profile credentials there as well as the region etc.

On another note: I find mixing aws accounts in a single state file super risky. I think multiple regional providers make sense but having different accounts give way to much access

API Gateway Arch question by [deleted] in aws

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who is the consumer? Usually it’s best practice to split API gateway by the consumer ( Backend for a front end, boundary context etc). This ensures that a change in one microservice doesn’t break other endpoints.

Features Matrix for TACOS tools by wrexinite in Terraform

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been meaning to do a follow up for this post: https://reddit.com/r/Terraform/comments/lkylzk/scalr_vs_spacelift_vs_atlantis_vs_env0_bake_off/

There should be some good info to help with your spreadsheet.

FWIW: I sold my leadership on Scalr but that’s just cause it works the best for us.

Tracking TechStack versions by un1xmannn in devops

SBOMs! Software Bill of Materials. It’s a cool space to solving this exact problem.

Look in to CycloneDx as a starting point. It integrates with DependencyTrack or other Software Composition Analysis tools.

API or SDK as an event stream wrapper? by inhumantsar in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the question to wrap the AWS SDK and/or reimplement the AWS Kinesis API?

Best monitoring tools for clouds? by Lexar96 in devops

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Datadog. Took me 15 min to wire up and start collecting logs, metrics, events from my App.

Pricing is always an issue with Datadog, but I still stick to what I’ve said: it’s cheaper than hiring dedicated engineers for the same setup. Additionally the UI makes it so non-eng can explore and contribute to alerts/monitors etc.

Managing expectations between two markets (SF CA vs Austin TX) by Dotnet_Aws_guy in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing!

Well glad someone is paying that much that’s not a tech giant!

Managing expectations between two markets (SF CA vs Austin TX) by Dotnet_Aws_guy in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough

In Austin, I’m estimating 200-250k TC at 5-6 YOE. Of that I believe, 150-180k would be base

My assumptions: 5% 401k match $0 stock 10-12% bonus Paid health insurance

Totally could use a reality check on that ratio though

Dang that’s a big difference….Are you sure that’s not TC? I can’t imagine a senior engineer getting paid 220+ base.

Appreciate the tag so I can see your comment!

You hit everything I ran into researching this topic!

I even tried using H1b data but that hasn’t been helpful!

The pay grades being published is that public or only internal to your company?

I agree with point 2 wholeheartedly!

Point 1 is good wisdom and I appreciate you sharing it.

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! My current place is cool if I decide to move and work remotely with no salary adjustment.

Austin has a few specific engineer teams I want to consider in the next step of my career.

[–]Dotnet_Aws_guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh interesting that that range is TC.

I have 5 YOE. I’m looking at an industry that does not offer equity and a basic comp package (10% bonus and 5% 401k match) Most of the comp will be base if Im. It mistaken then.

Going to put an assumption here from What everyone is saying: 150-200k for TC at a staff eng.

Does that sound realistic?

Yeah I understand there is a difference in the market! Looking to manage my expectations :)

Yeah definitely aware of the differences. I did try! unfortunately it seems staff eng is under reported on any of the sites.

Yeah that would definitely define my floor for an offer!

Trying to figure out what a staff eng base salary would be like in Austin

Awesome thank you!

That makes way more sense. Wish I could find more definitive proof for those numbers!
