AWS SAM now supports WebSocket APIs for Amazon API Gateway

AI Impact Summary

AWS SAM has expanded to fully support WebSocket APIs for Amazon API Gateway, simplifying the development of real-time applications like chat, streaming AI/LLM data, and IoT devices. Previously, defining WebSocket APIs within SAM required manual configuration of CloudFormation resources, leading to debugging challenges. This new capability eliminates manual resource management, automating IAM permissions, Lambda integrations, and custom domain configurations, significantly reducing operational overhead.
