Local AWS Lambda Development with SAM CLI

Developing serverless applications often means frequent deployments to test changes, which can slow down your workflow and incur unnecessary costs. This course provides a foundational understanding of how to develop, test, and debug AWS Lambda functions directly on your local machine, enabling faster iteration and more efficient development cycles. What you'll learn: Understand the fundamental principles of AWS Lambda and serverless computing. Configure your development environment for AWS SAM CLI. Write and package simple AWS Lambda functions using SAM templates. Execute and debug Lambda functions locally with SAM CLI commands. Simulate various cloud event sources to test local Lambda invocations. Apply effective strategies for local testing and debugging of serverless applications. Learn basic CI/CD integration concepts for serverless development workflows. The course begins with an introduction to serverless concepts and AWS Lambda, then guides you through setting up your local environment and writing your first serverless application, culminating in practical exercises for local testing and debugging. This course is designed for beginners in serverless development or those new to AWS Lambda who want to build and test applications more efficiently. Start building and testing your serverless applications with confidence.
