In this chapter, we learned about developing the REST API in the Django REST Framework. We covered the process of securing the API using the JWT authentication mechanism. Finally, we deployed the application in a serverless environment using Zappa.
In the next chapter, we are going to develop a high-performance API based application using a very lightweight Python framework. We will also explore more Zappa configuration options to set up a caching mechanism. Stay tuned to discover more gems from the Zappa world.
