Ours is a small team at the web dev shop at innoraft.com. We have some very passionate recent college pass-outs that have joined us and we are starting out build an impressive AWS team. If the new hires are more or less new to all tech stacks, which AWS SDK do you think we should choose first, and why? (For example: I would vote to start with the nodejs stack, which would help the team start getting familiar with advanced javascript, which I think would be a valuable asset. Also, the nodejs community seems very inviting etc.) But may be I should be looking at other criteria too?
Your question is a little confusing. I'd go with boto because it is the most stable. All the other libraries are kinda second-rate.<p>As for choosing an SDK because you want to familiarize people with a language I think you're looking at it the wrong way. That's not something you should be optimizing for. You should be optimizing for how the tool fits the problem you are trying to solve. Programmers are used to learning a new language and framework pretty much every other week so choosing node because it will help your new hires learn JavaScript is the wrong reason to do it. They're gonna learn JavaScript on their own or they know it already.
