Node.js, the ever-evolving JavaScript runtime environment, is approaching a significant milestone. Node.js version 16 reached its end of life (EOL) on September 11th, 2023. This means that official support, including security patches and bug fixes, will cease after this date.

For developers and businesses relying on Node.js 16, this news necessitates a proactive approach. My new blog explains what you need to know about the upcoming deprecation and the importance of upgrading to a supported version.

DynamoDB as API

I developed a Terraform Module "DynamoDB-as-API" which will create a AWS REST-API to Read items from your DynamoDB tables (Create, Update, Delete will be added soon). You just provide the list of DynamoDB tables, this module will read schema of all tables and will generate endpoints accordingly.

eg. Below code will create an API with GET endpoints for books and authors for each Partition Key and Sort Key (if any). Since it read directly from DynamoDB without any Lambda, the response time will be lightning-fast...

module "dynamodb-as-api" {
  source  = "CloudPediaAI/dynamodb-as-api/aws"
  version = "1.0.0"

  api_name = "Library-API"
  domain_name = "city-library.com"

  dynamodb_tables = {
    "books" = {
      table_name         = "books-table"
      allowed_operations = "R"
    },
    "authors" = {
      table_name         = "authors-table"
      allowed_operations = "R"
    }
  }
  providers = {
    aws           = aws.provder_for_api
    aws.us-east-1 = aws.provder_for_ssl
  }
}
