AWS SAM
Let's run through a quick primer on what the AWS SAM is before we start to test and deploy the function to your AWS environment.
In November 2016, AWS introduced the AWS Serverless Application Model, also known as AWS SAM, which used AWS CloudFormation under the hood and extended CloudFormation to provide a simplified mechanism to define and create AWS resources such as Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda functions, and Amazon DynamoDB, which are typically the resources that make up an AWS Serverless application. AWS SAM is a model through which you can define your serverless applications through the use of YAML (http://yaml.org/) templates. AWS SAM is open sourced and is available for consumption under the Apache 2.0 license.
