Microservices in Your Monolith

on YouTube ↗29m

" summary

Package called Sidecar lets a Laravel monolith package, deploy and invoke AWS Lambda functions from the same repo: same repo, deployed alongside. Code files (Node or Python handlers) are bundled, deployed via a build step and activated in deploy hooks so monolith and functions stay in sync. Monolith invokes Lambdas through the AWS SDK (no public API gateway) — execute-only-via-monolith. Live demo shows Node and Python handlers working, fan‑out runs many concurrent Lambdas (users report 50–500 shards) and it powers a real syntax‑highlighting service.
