Summary
It comes as no surprise that cloud migration and micro-service
architectures are all the rage right now. In fact, one of the most
satisfying parts of my job is spinning up infrastructure, analyzing
and figuring out how to get all the pieces of service layers to play
nicely together in the cloud. As we aim for cloud-native design, the
idea of serverless applications become more and more alluring.

In this talk, I would like to discuss some of the tools available to
us with which we can build serverless applications. Additionally, I
would like to break down a simple application into its pieces and
examine the role of each AWS service offering and how we wired them
together. We will discuss service responsibilities and configuration
of API Gateway, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, SNS, SQS and more. Time
permitting, we will also discuss the use of Cloud Formation to
orchestrate and deploy a serverless application.
