components and how it works
* Find out how to effectively and efficiently design, develop, and
test Lambda functions using Node.js, along with some keen coding
insights and best practices
* Explore best practices to effectively monitor and troubleshoot
Serverless applications using AWS CloudWatch and other third-party
services in the form of Datadog and Loggly
* Quickly design and develop Serverless applications by leveraging
AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and API Gateway using the Serverless Application
Framework (SAF) and other AWS services such as Step Functions
* Explore a rich variety of real-world Serverless use cases with
Lambda and see how you can apply it to your environments
IN DETAIL
AWS is recognized as one of the biggest market leaders for cloud
computing and why not? It has evolved a lot since the time it started
out by providing just basic services such as EC2 and S3 and today;
they go all the way from IoT to Machine Learning, Image recognition,
Chatbot Frameworks, and much more! One of those recent services that
is also gaining a lot of traction is AWS Lambda! Although seemingly
simple and easy to use, Lambda is a highly effective and scalable
compute service that provides developers with a powerful platform to
design and develop Serverless event-driven systems and applications.
The book begins with a high-level introduction into the world of
Serverless computing and its advantages and use cases, followed by a
deep dive into AWS Lambda! You’ll learn what services AWS Lambda
provides to developers; how to design, write, and test Lambda
functions; as well as monitor and troubleshoot them. The book is
designed and accompanied with a vast variety of real-world examples,
use cases, and code samples that will enable you to get started on
your Serverless applications quickly.
By the end of the book, you will have gained all the skills required
to work with AWS Lambda services!
STYLE AND APPROACH
This step-by-step guide will help you build Serverless applications
and run Serverless workloads using the AWS Lambda service. You’ll be
able to get started with it in a matter of minutes with easy-to-follow
code snippets and examples.
