Prerequisites of the Developing Serverless Solutions on AWS Training Course

Before attending this Developing Serverless Solutions on AWS Course, delegates should be familiar with AWS Cloud architecture and should have completed the AWS Lambda Training and AWS API Gateway Training.

Developing Serverless Solutions on AWS Training Course Overview

In today’s cloud-first world, serverless computing is revolutionising how developers build and deploy applications. AWS provides a robust platform for serverless architectures, enabling businesses to scale without managing servers. This course dives deep into AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and other serverless services, empowering professionals to design and implement efficient serverless solutions. By embracing serverless computing, organisations can drive innovation, reduce infrastructure costs, and enhance application performance.

Mastering serverless solutions on AWS is essential for cloud architects, developers, and DevOps engineers who are looking to optimise application performance and reduce operational complexity. As businesses continue to move to the cloud, serverless computing offers significant advantages in scalability and cost-efficiency. Professionals who can architect and implement serverless solutions are in high demand, making proficiency in AWS serverless services a valuable skill for anyone in cloud development or system architecture.

This comprehensive 2-days Developing Serverless Solutions on AWS is designed to equip delegates with the necessary skills to create serverless applications on AWS. The course covers key AWS services such as Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB, guiding delegates through best practices for designing, building, and managing serverless applications. By the end of the course, delegates will be able to confidently implement serverless solutions, streamlining development processes, optimising costs, and accelerating time-to-market for cloud applications.

Course Objectives

• To create infrastructure and applications with the use of autocompletion
• To specify the resources with the use of CloudFormation in SAM template
• To search and analyse log data in Amazon CloudWatch Logs
• To create applications that respond to data changes in DynamoDB tables
• To build Lambda applications that respond rapidly to new information
• To know how to minimise the attack surface by giving security checks

After attending the Developing Serverless Solutions on AWS Training course, delegates will be able to set up an HTTP API endpoint integrated with a Lambda function. They will also be able to troubleshoot a standard step functions workflow.
