How To Make AWS Better

The video explores the spectrum of cloud dependency for developers, from self-hosting to SaaS reliance. It emphasizes the importance of leveraging big cloud efficiently using open source tools like Palumi, SST, Docker Build Cloud, and Local Stack. Palumi is highlighted for infrastructure as code, while SST is recommended for JavaScript developers. Docker Build Cloud accelerates image building, and Local Stack allows AWS service emulation locally. Encore integrates infrastructure as code with application code, offering a streamlined development process.
