Learn AWS Serverless Computing

Summary

There we have it. We've added Amazon API Gateway to AWS Lambda and other services to implement real-world serverless API architectures. Covering security at the start was important because, without properly securing our services, we can't safely offer functionality to our customers and consumers. We also learned about some of the API management functionality that Amazon API Gateway can bring to our solutions; these are key when we're planning a production implementation and when we want to expose our compute service via a RESTful API. Finally, we created an API of our own using the console and the CLI. Later on, we will show you an application framework that will make creating and maintaining APIs much easier.
