Best practices for building serverless applications that follow AWS's Well-Architected Framework

This article discusses how to use remote instrumentation to gain deeper insights into AWS Lambda function performance without modifying code. By leveraging tools like OpenTelemetry and partners like Datadog, teams can collect detailed telemetry data—like traces, metrics, and logs—directly from Lambda functions as they execute. This approach enables faster troubleshooting, improved observability, and better optimization of serverless applications.
