This lab provides an in-depth exploration of AWS Serverless Computing, focusing on building and deploying applications without the need to provision or manage servers. Serverless computing enables developers to focus on writing code while AWS handles the infrastructure, scaling, and maintenance. In this lab, you will gain practical experience with the key serverless services offered by AWS, including AWS Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, and S3.
You will start by learning how AWS Lambda allows you to run code in response to events without provisioning servers. You’ll create and deploy Lambda functions, configure triggers, and connect them to other AWS services. Next, you will explore Amazon API Gateway, which enables you to create RESTful APIs to interact with your Lambda functions or other backend systems. You’ll learn how to configure endpoints, manage API security, and monitor API usage.
The lab will also cover Amazon DynamoDB, a fully managed NoSQL database service, where you will learn to create tables, store data, and integrate it with your Lambda functions. Additionally, you’ll work with Amazon S3, a scalable storage service, to host static assets and support application workflows.
By the end of the lab, you will have hands-on experience in designing, building, and deploying serverless applications on AWS. This lab equips you with the skills to create scalable, cost-effective, and highly available applications, making it a critical foundation for modern cloud development.
