Serverless Development with AWS Lambda and API Gateway

Are you looking to build highly scalable applications without the hassle of managing servers? Serverless computing allows you to run code in response to events while automatically handling the underlying compute resources. In this text-only course, you will transition from a serverless beginner to confidently designing, deploying, and optimizing your own event-driven applications on AWS. What you'll learn: - Understand the core principles of serverless computing and the AWS Lambda lifecycle - Configure API Gateway to route HTTP requests directly to your serverless functions - Practice managing Lambda triggers, environment variables, and IAM security roles - Apply modern techniques to minimize cold starts and optimize function performance - Monitor and debug your serverless applications using CloudWatch logs and metrics - Design event-driven workflows that integrate Lambda with other cloud services The course begins with foundational serverless concepts and key terminology before guiding you through hands-on configuration, API integrations, security best practices, and performance tuning. This course is designed for software developers, cloud beginners, and system administrators looking to adopt serverless architecture. No prior AWS experience is required to begin.
