What we'll cover
Two days at ServerlessDays Cardiff 2026: a hands-on AWS Lambda MicroVMs workshop and ten talks from AWS, Microsoft, Databricks, DVLA and others. The event was called "serverless", but most of it was about AI agents. Here's what's worth your time.
Topics
- AWS Lambda isn't one thing anymore: event, durable and web functions, MicroVMs — what changed and why
- The AWS Lambda MicroVMs workshop hands-on: a code sandbox, an AI reviewer for PRs, a CI runner, multi-tenant SaaS
- Agents that have to wait: durable functions, replay, and why a message must never be sent twice
- Why AI pilots don't reach production: evals, tracing, governance
- "Human in the loop": safeguard or illusion? The speakers openly disagreed
- The bottleneck isn't code anymore: a Lamborghini stuck in traffic
- Digital sovereignty: a data centre 80 metres from a strike, and the lessons drawn from it
