I had the amazing opportunity to co-present a session at AWS re:Inforce 2022. My co-presenter was Suresh Sridharan, a product manager on the Amazon Cognito team. Suresh talked about a variety of options that Cognito customers have for managing multi-tenant solutions, and I talked about the particular choices that our team has made and what took us down this path. For the full details, check out the slides and the recording.

I read a great post about protecting Amazon Cognito with an Amazon CloudFront proxy and wondered if using an Amazon API Gateway proxy instead would work better. It really really did. Being able to use the full power of Lambda was fantastic, and the performance was improved significantly. I got in touch with the author of the original post and he was generous enough to offer a collaboration on a follow-up post on the AWS architecture blog.
