In the previous chapter, we created a fully-functional serverless data API using the API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB with an IAM role, and tested it once it was deployed. However, most of the code and configuration was deployed manually; a process that is prone to error, not repeatable, and not scalable.
In this chapter, we are going to show you how to deploy all that infrastructure using only code and configuration. The topics covered are as follows:
- An overview of serverless-stack build and deploy options
- Creating a profile, an S3 bucket, IAM policies, and IAM roles resources
- Building and deploying with API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB
