Video Description

Serverless architecture is viewed as the savior of future web development, as it makes it possible to avoid many problems that traditional cloud hosting faces. The time has come for you to join the revolution!

In this course, you will learn how to use AWS and the Serverless framework, which simplifies the process of creating serverless applications significantly. This course will take you step by step through the process of creating three real-world applications, as well as configuring AWS and the Serverless framework to work locally on your machine. You’ll also see how to deploy your applications to AWS, as well as learning how to monitor your application.

At the end of this video tutorial, you’ll learn to create an image resizer on AWS, which will automatically resize images.
