Synopsis "Building Serverless Applications With Python: Develop Fast, Scalable, and Cost-Effective web Applications That are Always Available "
Building efficient Python applications at minimal cost by adopting serverless architecturesKey FeaturesDesign and set up a data flow between cloud services and custom business logicMake your applications efficient and reliable using serverless architectureBuild and deploy scalable serverless Python APIsBook DescriptionServerless architectures allow you to build and run applications and services without having to manage the infrastructure. Many companies have adopted this architecture to save cost and improve scalability. This book will help you design serverless architectures for your applications with AWS and Python.The book is divided into three modules. The first module explains the fundamentals of serverless architecture and how AWS lambda functions work. In the next module, you will learn to build, release, and deploy your application to production. You will also learn to log and test your application. In the third module, we will take you through advanced topics such as building a serverless API for your application. You will also learn to troubleshoot and monitor your app and master AWS lambda programming concepts with API references. Moving on, you will also learn how to scale up serverless applications and handle distributed serverless systems in production.By the end of the book, you will be equipped with the knowledge required to build scalable and cost-efficient Python applications with a serverless framework.What you will learnUnderstand how AWS Lambda and Microsoft Azure Functions work and use them to create an applicationExplore various triggers and how to select them, based on the problem statementBuild deployment packages for Lambda functionsMaster the finer details about building Lambda functions and versioningLog and monitor serverless applicationsLearn about security in AWS and Lambda functionsScale up serverless applications to handle huge workloads and serverless distributed systems in productionUnderstand SAM model deployment in AWS LambdaWho This Book Is ForThis book is for Python developers who would like to learn about serverless architecture. Python programming knowledge is assumed.Table of ContentsThe Serverless ParadigmBuilding a Serverless Application in AWSSetting Up Serverless ArchitecturesDeploying Serverless APIsLogging and MonitoringScaling Up Serverless ArchitecturesSecurity in AWS LambdaDeploying a Lambda Function with SAMIntroduction to Microsoft Azure Functions
