Overview of this book

Expert AWS Development begins with the installation of the AWS SDK and you will go on to get hands-on experience of creating an application using the AWS Management Console and the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI). Then, you will integrate applications with AWS services such as DynamoDB, Amazon Kinesis, AWS Lambda, Amazon SQS, and Amazon SWF. Following this, you will get well versed with CI/CD workflow and work with four major phases in the release process – Source, Build, Test, and Production. Then, you will learn to apply AWS Developer tools to your Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) workflow. Later, you will learn about user authentication using Amazon Cognito, and also how you can evaluate the best architecture as per your infrastructure costs. You will learn about Amazon EC2 service and will deploy an app using it. You will also deploy a practical real-world example of a CI/CD application with the Serverless Application Framework, which is known as AWS Lambda. Finally, you will learn how to build, develop, and deploy the Application using AWS Developer tools such as AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CodePipeline, as per your project requirements.

Chapter 10. Amazon Lambda – AWS Serverless Architecture

Bingo! You have reached the last chapter. I hope you have enjoyed what has been mentioned about AWS and thought that it was quite an interesting journey to complete all the previous chapters. But still, the excitement is not over yet. In the previous chapter, we discussed Docker, container instances, clusters, scheduling tasks, and Windows containers. We also learned about Elastic Load Balancing (ELB), Auto Scaling, fault tolerance, and monitoring and optimizing infrastructure costs. We also modified AWS CodeDeploy for CI/CD applications with Auto Scaling.

The excitement starts here, because we will learn about the Serverless Framework, as many companies are interested to see how it affects their existing system or how they can integrate serverless architecture with their existing applications to get the benefit of it.

In this chapter, we will discuss more about microservices, the Serverless Framework, how you can achieve serverless on...
