PART 3: In this article, we’ll look at how to build a Step Functions Workflow using SAM as IaC, AppSync, and Python.
In the previous article we used SAM to build and deploy a service that facilitates a file uploaded to an S3 bucket and asynchronously writes the file’s metadata to Dynamodb, which we can query. Now we’ll use another first-party AWS tool called "CDK".
There are a lot of options when it comes to building serverless systems. Join along as we build the same service with different frameworks and tools. Cloud engineering is all about understanding requirements and making choices based on tradeoffs.
Using the serverless framework reduced deployment complexity by 97.4%.
In this tutorial, we are going to see how to build a CRUD (Create, Read, Update, & Delete) API with node js using an SQL-compatible query language known as PartiQL to communicate with DynamoDB and AWS SAM as the framework.
When developing serverless applications, it's best to debug in the cloud as much as possible. If you are developing in the AWS Cloud, you are most likely using IaC to deploy your application. Let's see how to set up a VSCode to debug your framework.
