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.

Amazon SQS


Amazon SQS is a fully distributed, highly scalable, reliable, and managed message queuing service. Amazon SQS is easy to scale and decouples microservices, serverless applications, and distributed systems.

This service will help to create message queuing applications and store messages in transit between distributed systems. This application can run on any computer.

With Amazon SQS, you will not lose any messages when you move data between application components, without requiring that each and every component will be available.

Amazon SQS will help you focus on creating and building robust and sophisticated applications without concentrating on how to store, manage, and retrieve messages from any volumes.

Amazon SQS has two types of queues:

  • Standard queue: This queue is available for all regions:
    • At-Least-Once Delivery: Message will be delivered a minimum of once and sometimes more than once
    • High Throughput: It supports unlimited number of transactions per second per API action
    • Best...
