• Going Serverless with AWS – Serverless User Authentication – Part 2

  Hello and welcome back to Going Serverless with AWS, In part 1 we learned what Serverless means and what we are going to build. In part 2 We will learn how to create an RDS instance with the AWS cli tools, and build our first lambda function, package it, deploy it, and invoke it using the AWS cli tools. In the spirit of keeping this as simple as possible you will be able to copy and paste all commands and get a working setup however this will be super insecure as passwords and things will be set using the AWS cli.

• Going Serverless with AWS – Serverless User Authentication – Part 1

  What is Serverless? Serverless architectures refer to applications that significantly depend on third-party services (knows as Backend as a Service or “BaaS”) or on custom code that’s run in ephemeral containers (Function as a Service or “FaaS”), the best known vendor host of which currently is AWS Lambda. By using these ideas, and by moving much behaviour to the front end, such architectures remove the need for the traditional ‘always on’ server system sitting behind an application.
