Our biggest takeaway from AWS re:Invent is that Generative AI is best used by developers to perform upgrades of technical debt.
If you’re a developer, then you’ve been here before. When you started writing the application, Java 11 was in vogue. Four years later, Java 17 is all of the rage. You haven’t upgraded Java because it’s painful. It’s challenging to convince your boss that it’s a worthwhile endeavor to spend a month or two to upgrade all of this outdated Java code. What do you do?
Well, now you can leverage the AWS Q Transform class to generate the upgraded code for you.
Does that sound too good to be true? Take a gander at https://aws.amazon.com/q/developer/transform/
After you review the specs for Q Transform, take a look at our notes from our favorite session at AWS re:Invent, DOP209 - Accelerate application maintenance and upgrades with generative AI.
