Serverless Architectures on AWS, Second Edition teaches you how to design, secure, and manage serverless backend APIs for web and mobile applications on the AWS platform. You'll get going quickly with this book's relevant real-world examples, code listings, diagrams, and clearly-described architectures that you can readily apply to your own work. You’ll master serverless systems using AWS Lambda and the myriad other services on the AWS platform. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect the newest serverless design best practices and changes to AWS. It features two entirely new chapters dedicated to DevOps, monitoring, and microservices, as well as working with DynamoDB, GraphQL and Kinesis. Key Features · First steps with serverless computing · The principles of serverless design · Transitioning from servers to services · Writing AWS Lambda functions and using the API Gateway Audience This book is for server-side and full-stack software developers with some experience using Node.js and AWS. Author Bio Peter Sbarski is VP of Engineering at A Cloud Guru and the head organizer of Serverlessconf, the world’s first conference dedicated entirely to serverless architectures and technologies. Throughout his extensive IT career, Peter has led teams across large enterprise solutions with a focus on web and AWS cloud technologies.

DESCRIPTION Serverless architecture is about having more time to focus on code, and moving quickly. In these new architectures, traditional back-end servers are replaced with cloud functions acting as discrete singlepurpose services. With serverless compute technologies like AWS Lambda, developers can build entirely serverless platforms at scale. Serverless Architectures on AWS teaches how to build, secure and manage serverless architectures that can power the most demanding web and mobile apps. This book has many ready-made and real-world examples, code snippets, diagrams, and descriptions of architectures that can be readily applied. It describes a traditional application and its back end concerns and then shows how to solve these same problems with a serverless approach. By the end, readers will be able to reason about serverless systems and be able to compose their own systems by applying these ideas and examples. KEY FEATURES • Up-to-date with the most current platform trends • Real-world examples, code snippets, and diagrams• Learn to solve back end concerns with a serverless approach AUDIENCE This book is for all software developers interested in back end technologies. Experience with JavaScript (node.js) and AWS is useful but not required. ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY Lambda is a compute service that executes code written in JavaScript (node.js), Python, or Java on AWS infrastructure. Source code is deployed to an isolated container that has its own allocation of memory, disk space, and CPU. Serverless architectures herald a new way of building scalable, powerful, cost-effective, and high-performing back end systems. They encourage a new way of creating applications through the use of a stateless compute service to execute code.
