S2E5: Building Serverless Applications


Listen Later

Join us as we dig into what it really takes to build full applications using AWS Lambda.

This season we’re working our way through the book "Programming AWS Lambda”.  

We’ve covered the basics. Now it’s time to put it all together! In this week’s episode, we’re diving into Chapter 5: Building Serverless Applications, where we go beyond isolated functions and explore how to stitch them into real-world systems.

🛠️ What tools should you use?
🤔 What really counts as an application in a serverless world?
🔗 How do you connect functions, data stores, and event sources?

Whether you’re just getting started or already deploying serverless apps, this discussion will have something for everyone.
