Setting Up an Automated Serverless Deployment
In this chapter, we will be focused on setting up CodePipeline for serverless deployment. This chapter will introduce you to serverless ecosystems and explain how AWS provides scalable solutions through the Lambda service. We will develop a sample Lambda function and set up automated CodePipeline for Lambda deployment. In this chapter, we will be covering the following topics:
- What is a serverless ecosystem?
- What is AWS Lambda?
- AWS Lambda development
- AWS Lambda manual deployment
- AWS Lambda pipeline setup
In the previous chapter, we learned about the AWS CodePipeline service and showed you how you can deploy a microservice to Elastic Container Service (EC2) and EC2-based instances in an automated way. In this chapter, we will discuss how you can automate the delivery of AWS Lambda functions using AWS CodePipeline. But before we start talking about Lambda functions, we need to understand what serverless is in...
