AWS Lambda responds to the events triggered by your application or your users, and automatically manages the underlying computer resources for you. Back-end tasks like analyzing a new document or processing requests from a mobile app are easy to implement. Your application is divided into small functions, leading naturally to a reactive architecture and the adoption of microservices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAWS Lambda in Action\u003c\/i\u003e is an example-driven tutorial that teaches you how to build applications that use an event-driven approach on the back-end. Starting with an overview of AWS Lambda, the book moves on to show you common examples and patterns that you can use to call Lambda functions from a web page or a mobile app. The second part of the book puts these smaller examples together to build larger applications. By the end, you'll be ready to create applications that take advantage of the high availability, security, performance, and scalability of AWS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCreate a simple API\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCreate an event-driven media-sharing application\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSecure access to your application in the cloud\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse functions from different clients like web pages or mobile apps\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConnect your application with external services\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the Reader\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Requires basic knowledge of JavaScript.
