Preface:

It is, unfortunately, extremely common for customers and enterprises operating in AWS to have chosen a workload/storage bearing account (more than likely, the main production account) as the Organization Management Account (formerly known Organization "Master" account, before AWS adopted better naming).
Many customers and companies operating in AWS made this decision in 2018 or so and its unforunately not something that can be easily changed as of 2024. Many customers have requests to AWS to make a friendly path for rehoming the Org Management account, but last I heard it is still not prioritized. Thus, we as customers are left to go through the nerve-wracking, if not dangerous process of migrating to a new AWS Organization in order to align with modern best practices and reduce common privilege escalation and account to account lateral movement concerns (made worse if you happen to have enabled things like Cloudformation Stacksets, Control Tower, or other powerful services in the same

How to setup AWS lambda function to talk to the internet and VPC

I'm going to walk you through the steps for setting up a AWS Lambda to talk to the internet and a VPC. Let's dive in.

So it might be really unintuitive at first but lambda functions have three states.

1. No VPC, where it can talk openly to the web, but can't talk to any of your AWS services.
2. VPC, the default setting where the lambda function can talk to your AWS services but can't talk to the web.
3. VPC with NAT, The best of both worlds, AWS services and web.

Also striped volumes needs to be taken in mind - overall statistics just print sum of all bricks

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."
