This is the material for the SynTouch Bits & Bites session (workshop) on Serverless, specifically Amazon's Lambda. During this workshop you will be guided to:
- setting up your account; preferrably you have already completed setting up your account
- setting up your Cloud9 IDE as your cloud development environment in the cloud. Isn't that übercool?.This process just takes a couple of minutes.
- Your First Lamba: HelloWorld - turning into a web callable API - around 30 minutes
- Event Driven Image Manipulation - 45 minutes
- Ask not what your company can do for you ... SynBeerVotingWebApp. For the WebSite you will need some static resources that can be found here. Finished code for my implementation for the lambdas is also present, so if you're a lazy git you can save ourself some work ... 45-60 minutes
All tutorials can be completed using the instructions provided with the code snippets and some knowledge on Node.js from my previous Bits & Bites. If you have not attended it, you can the materials here. But of course Google will also help you out a lot and if you're stuck ... just ask!
Please let me know if you encounter any errors or omissions in the material!
If you finish early - or need to be challenged, consider implementing the following use case:
