Jumpstart Your Serverless Journey with AWS

Serverless development might sound like magic, or maybe even like something straight out of The Matrix, but trust me, it’s not the kind of tech that will leave you tangled in complexity. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll explore what makes serverless different (and why it might just be the kung fu your development workflow needs).

Using the Serverless Framework, TypeScript, and AWS tools like API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB, we’ll start from the basics and show how you can build scalable applications without managing servers. No prior serverless experience needed, just curiosity and a willingness to have some fun!

I’ll share real-world success stories and even let my extremely opinionated French Bulldog weigh in on serverless. And because learning is better with hands-on experience, we’ll put serverless to the test with Battle of the Attendee, a live game where you’ll compete while I demonstrate how AWS scales on demand.

Oh, and if you do happen to be an experienced serverless developer? Well, you might still want to stick around, after all, there’s a prize to win. And let’s just say… Great Scott!, it’s worth it.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

– How serverless changes the way we build applications (hint: less dojo-building, more action).
– When serverless is and isn’t the right choice.
– Designing scalable and resilient APIs with AWS services.
– A real-world example in action, with live performance scaling.
