AWS Serverless is probably the quickest way to build a very stable REST APIs that scale to serve millions of users. A very simple Mock APIcan be created and deployed in minutes. An API that uses AWSLambda compute service will take longer but how much longer will depend on the business logic that you need to write.

In this video course, you will learn what is RESTAPIand how to create one using AWSServerless Services.

You will learn in detail how to use Amazon APIGateway to create REST APIs, and AWSLambda Compute Service to execute business logic. The course is designed for absolute beginners, so you do not need to have any experience with AWS Serverless.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Create RESTful APIendpoints,

• Build and deploy API with AWSSAM,

• Validate HTTPrequest body and request parameters,

• Transform HTTP request body into a different model,

• Transform HTTPresponse JSON into a different one,

• Deploy APIs into different stages,

• Perform Canary Release Deployments and shift traffic between different versions of APIs,

• Publish multiple versions of Lambda functions and shift traffic between these functions,

• Document and Export RESTAPI,

• Implement User Sign-up with Amazon Cognito,

• Learn to use Cognito Authorizer to control who can access your API in Amazon API Gateway,

• Implement custom Lambda Authorizer that validates JWT,

• Secure APIendpoints with APIKeys and learn to configure requests Throattling and Quota,

• Unit Test AWSLambda functions,

• Build CI/CD Pipeline using AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild and AWS CodePipeline developer tools.

If you want to learn how to build REST APIs quickly, without starting, configuring, and managing any servers, then this course is for you.
