Description
Are you brand new to AWS Lambda? Have you found that many of the training resources out there use complex technical jargon that make it difficult to understand the basic concepts? If you need to get a basic understanding of AWS Lambda quickly and clearly, this is the course for you.I have taught hundreds of thousands of students across a variety of platforms, and I think anyone brand new to AWS Lambda will love this course. Most lectures in this course are 5 – 10 minutes long. This course gives you an understanding of how Lambda works, how it is billed, and how to create your own AWS Lambda Functions!You can begin this course now, and in two short hours you will have a strong understanding of Lambda. So don’t wait – give this course a try now and lean how to manage EC2!Lessons include:Introduction to Microservices and ContainersIntroduction to Serverless FuncionsInvoking LambdaIntroduction to the Lambda consoleScaling and performance of Lambda FunctionsLambda Logging DemoTraditional vs. Serverless architectureLambda, IAM, and VPCsSynchronous vs. Asynchronous Lambda FunctionsCreate a Basic Lambda FunctionCreate a Scheduled Lambda Function Integrated with IAM, CloudWatch logs, Eventbridge
