Java on AWS - all the details that matter
summary
Covers concrete JVM-first features on AWS: use AWS SDK v2 (and a Kotlin-native SDK), generate service clients with Smithy, and run Java on Lambda with Lambda SnapStart and CRaC-based runtime hooks to cut cold starts; measure memory/CPU with the Lambda Power Tuning stack, prefer Uber-jars, the AWS CRT HTTP client, or GraalVM native images for fastest startup. Replatforming options include App Runner for serverless containers, Graviton processors for cost/speed wins, CDK in Java, ADOT for OpenTelemetry, and agent-driven migrations using Q developer + OpenRewrite.
