After reading this chapter, you should have a much deeper understanding of security in AWS and why it's important for your organization. After all, no one wants to be the person responsible for a data breach. We discussed IAM and you now know that policies are the key documents that ensure restricted access to AWS resources. We also looked at some of the security concepts that secure your serverless microservices; specifically, we learned about lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB.

Overview of this book
Over the last few years, there has been a massive shift from monolithic architecture to microservices, thanks to their small and independent deployments that allow increased flexibility and agile delivery. Traditionally, virtual machines and containers were the principal mediums for deploying microservices, but they involved a lot of operational effort, configuration, and maintenance. More recently, serverless computing has gained popularity due to its built-in autoscaling abilities, reduced operational costs, and increased productivity.
Building Serverless Microservices in Python begins by introducing you to serverless microservice structures. You will then learn how to create your first serverless data API and test your microservice. Moving on, you'll delve into data management and work with serverless patterns. Finally, the book introduces you to the importance of securing microservices.
By the end of the book, you will have gained the skills you need to combine microservices with serverless computing, making their deployment much easier thanks to the cloud provider managing the servers and capacity planning.
