My last company were huge users of this. It's quite limited in terms of the resources it can deploy. To add additional resources that it doesn't work with, you need to write some Terraform.

I summarised the pattern we were using here https://github.com/elgrove/terroir

I'm not surprised the project is dead. AWS want everyone using the CDK for Python or CloudFormation

Hilariously, "chalice" is a strong swear word in Quebec French, so there the name of this product is roughly equivalent to "AWS Fuck". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec_French_profanity

I think that was the codename for their billing module.

What a bizarre phenomenon.

Per that article, the word chalice does mean chalice, but is treated as a swear word precisely because it doesn’t have any profane association and has sacred overtones?

How then would one discuss these topics at all? Is this an attempt to wipe out all the words entirely?

Anyone here actually developing Python apps on AWS Lambda? If so do you use Serverless Framework or something else? I am part of a research project that is developing techniques for identifying security vulnerabilities in serverless apps so would be interested to understand what people are actually using for deployment and why.
