Book excerpt: While static websites are both easy on AWS and important for many 476536564es, some degree of interactivity is now an expected part of the web. Whether it's a shopping cart, sign-up form, or just a bit of interaction that goes beyond a simple link or button click, you need to be able to make your websites dynamic. AWS Lambda helps developers of all stripes-even those with little knowledge of back-end development-revolutionize their projects by leveraging a serverless approach to dynamic websites. In this course, instructor Brett McLaughlin shows you how to use AWS tools-plus the technology you already know, such as JavaScript and HTML-to build a complete dynamic serverless website. Learn how to write a Lambda function that takes in a request from a web server and returns an HTML response with some interaction; send an email from a Lambda function; convert a Lambda function to avoid cross-domain and security issues; and more.

Book Synopsis AWS Lambda in Action by : Danilo Poccia

Download or read book AWS Lambda in Action written by Danilo Poccia. This book was released on 2016-11-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary AWS Lambda in Action is an example-driven tutorial that teaches you how to build applications that use an event-driven approach on the back end. Foreword by James Governor. About the Technology With AWS Lambda, you write your code and upload it to the AWS cloud. AWS Lambda responds to the events triggered by your application or your users, and automatically manages the underlying computer resources for you. Back-end tasks like analyzing a new document or processing requests from a mobile app are easy to implement. Your application is divided into small functions, leading naturally to a reactive architecture and the adoption of microservices. About the Book AWS Lambda in Action is an example-driven tutorial that teaches you how to build applications that use an event-driven approach on the back-end. Starting with an overview of AWS Lambda, the book moves on to show you common examples and patterns that you can use to call Lambda functions from a web page or a mobile app. The second part of the book puts these smaller examples together to build larger applications. By the end, you'll be ready to create applications that take advantage of the high availability, security, performance, and scalability of AWS. What's Inside Create a simple API Create an event-driven media-sharing application Secure access to your application in the cloud Use functions from different clients like web pages or mobile apps Connect your application with external services About the Reader Requires basic knowledge of JavaScript. Some examples are also provided in Python. No AWS experience is assumed. About the Author Danilo Poccia is a technical evangelist at Amazon Web Services and a frequent speaker at public events and workshops.

Book Synopsis Build a Serverless App with AWS Lambda by : Frank Kane

Download or read book Build a Serverless App with AWS Lambda written by Frank Kane. This book was released on 2018. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Immerse yourself in Amazon Web Services (AWS) with this hands-on, project-based course - and truly internalize some highly valuable skills in the world of technology. We'll walk you through building your own chat website using nothing but AWS services - and no standalone services or server instances at all! Building a "serverless app" using AWS and its Lambda service is a great introduction to the core services AWS offers. We'll tie it all together by learning and practicing Javascript, and we'll learn about CORS to grant browsers the permissions they need to run a serverless application. Even if you're familiar with AWS, you'll learn valuable techniques on how to build a fully functional, dynamic website without maintaining any servers at all - not even via EC2! Your highly experienced guides through this project are Frank Kane, formerly a senior manager at Amazon, and Brian Tajuddin, a principal engineer also formerly working at Amazon. You'll be learning AWS from people who were there when it was being created. You'll join over 140,000 other students of the Sundog Education team who have leveled up their careers with hot technical skills."--Resource description page.

Book Synopsis Serverless Architectures on AWS by : Peter Sbarski

Download or read book Serverless Architectures on AWS written by Peter Sbarski. This book was released on 2017-04-17. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary Serverless Architectures on AWS teaches you how to build, secure and manage serverless architectures that can power the most demanding web and mobile apps. Forewords by Patrick Debois (Founder of devopsdays) and Dr. Donald F. Ferguson (Columbia University). Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications. About the Technology There's a shift underway toward serverless cloud architectures. With the release of serverless computer technologies such as AWS Lambda, developers are now building entirely serverless platforms at scale. In these new architectures, traditional back-end servers are replaced with cloud functions acting as discrete single-purpose services. By composing and combining these serverless cloud functions together in a loose orchestration and adopting useful third-party services, developers can create powerful yet easy-to-understand applications. About the Book Serverless Architectures on AWS teaches you how to build, secure, and manage serverless architectures that can power the most demanding web and mobile apps. You'll get going quickly with this book's ready-made real-world examples, code snippets, diagrams, and descriptions of architectures that can be readily applied. By the end, you'll be able to architect and build your own serverless applications on AWS. What's Inside First steps with serverless computing Important patterns and architectures Writing AWS Lambda functions and using the API Gateway Composing serverless applications using key services like Auth0 and Firebase Securing, deploying, and managing serverless architectures About the Reader This book is for software developers interested in back end technologies. Experience with JavaScript (node.js) and AWS is useful but not required. About the Author Dr. Peter Sbarski is a well-known AWS expert, VP of engineering at A Cloud Guru, and head of Serverlessconf.
