Automated API Quality Checks with AWS Step Functions

Ensuring the reliability and correctness of your APIs is crucial for any modern application. This course guides you through building automated systems to validate API responses, data integrity, and overall API health. By completing this course, you will gain the skills to design, implement, and deploy serverless workflows that automatically perform quality checks on your APIs, enhancing their stability and performance. What you'll learn: * Understand core concepts of serverless architecture and event-driven patterns * Learn to design and implement state machine workflows with AWS Step Functions * Build serverless functions using AWS Lambda for API validation logic * Apply patterns for parallel processing and error handling in Step Functions * Practice validating API responses and managing data flow within workflows * Configure basic infrastructure-as-code principles for deploying serverless applications * Understand fundamental principles of monitoring and observability for serverless workflows The course begins with foundational serverless concepts and terminology, progressing to practical implementation of Lambda functions and Step Functions state machines. You will then explore advanced workflow patterns and conclude with deployment and operational considerations for your automated quality checks. This course is designed for absolute beginners with basic programming knowledge who want to learn how to build automated, serverless solutions on AWS.
