# It's almost reInvent with a good pre:Invent week 🚀☁️ #91

In the previous issue, [AWS Serverless MCP Server with Lambda event-source mapping 🚀☁️ #90](https://www.theserverlessterminal.com/p/aws-serverless-mcp-server-with-lambda) we looked into the ESM with Lambda.

AWS Lambda announced a powerful new Tenant Isolation Mode that completely transforms how you build secure, multi-tenant SaaS applications.

If you run multi-tenant applications on Lambda (think workflow automation or code execution platforms), achieving strict tenant isolation was often a manual headache involving complex custom routing or even deploying a dedicated function for every single tenant.

Why SaaS Teams are Cheering:

- Stop Building Custom Solutions: Ditch the complexity of managing per-tenant routing logic or siloed function deployments.
- Ironclad Isolation: Instantly meet strict security and compliance requirements by ensuring compute resources are isolated per tenant.
- Focus on Features: Spend less time on operational complexity and more time building your core product.

#### ⭐ Pick of the month

This month’s Pick is “**Lambda optimization and performance**“.

*Chris Ebert* published a blog on [comparing AWS Lambda Arm64 v/s x86_64 performance across multiple runtimes](https://chrisebert.net/comparing-aws-lambda-arm64-vs-x86_64-performance-across-multiple-runtimes-in-late-2025/) and how the choosing between the architecture of your Lambda can optimize it for performance.

*Jones Zachariah Noel N* (author) explains different factors which can account for [maintaining Lambda function performance during peak traffic](https://blog.theserverlessterminal.com/maintaining-lambda-function-performance-during-peak-traffic) and how ALBs and API Gateway play a role in this architecture choice.

#### 🚀 AWSome content to learn from

*Guille Ojeda* debunks the concepts of [DynamoDB - partitions, sharding and split for heat](https://newsletter.simpleaws.dev/p/partitions-sharding-split-for-heat-dynamodb) which specially talks about fundamentals DDB design for production scaling.

*Petri Kallberg*’s blog [You don’t need NAT gateway to deploy Lambda into VPC](https://carriagereturn.nl/aws/lambda/ipv6/vpc/nat/2025/11/16/lambda-ipv6-vpc.html) that helps us understand about the configuration changes with IPv6 CIDR block, subnet and route tables with `ipv6AllowedForDualStack` on Lambda.

*Renato Losio* breaks down the AWS Outage from Oct 19-20th with [the race condition in DynamoDB DNS system](https://www.infoq.com/news/2025/11/aws-dynamodb-outage-postmortem/) that eventually brought almost all of us-east-1 down.

*Darryl Ruggles* dives into [Aurora DSQL - Build a Serverless multi-region e-commerce platform](https://darryl-ruggles.cloud/dsql-kabob-store) also going over containers > Lambda for this and DSQL configurations.

*Mohit Deshpande* breaks down how you can [design EDA with Amazon Evnetbridge with better security](https://blog.qualys.com/product-tech/2025/11/17/eventbridge-security-reconnaissance-attack-best-practices-2025) from organization level goverance with SCPs to going as granular as service level secure rule patterns.

*James Eastham*and*Luciano [Mammino](https://news.rust-lambda.com/p/from-experimental-to-ga-rust-on-lambda-and-our-road-ahead)*[share from experimental to GA: Rust on Lambda and Our Road Ahead](https://news.rust-lambda.com/p/from-experimental-to-ga-rust-on-lambda-and-our-road-ahead) focusing on Rust support going GA on Lambda and how it’s evolved in from the experimental state.

#### ⚒️ What's happening with Serverless tools, samples, and projects

*Lee Priest* has an update with [CDK Insights](https://www.cdkinsights.dev/).

*Ran Isenberg* wiht Python 3.14 support on Lambda with [aws-lambda-env-modeler](https://github.com/ran-isenberg/aws-lambda-env-modeler) library.

[AWS Lambda roadmap](http://s12d.com/lambda-roadmap) goes live.
