AWS and Serverless Framework: Build a Multi-Store Backend

Building applications that scale automatically without the overhead of managing physical or virtual servers is the standard for modern cloud development. Transitioning to a serverless architecture allows you to focus purely on writing code while the cloud provider handles the infrastructure. In this course, you will learn how to design, build, and deploy a fully functional multi-store backend using AWS and the Serverless Framework. You will progress from understanding core serverless concepts to implementing a production-ready, event-driven microservices architecture that handles storage, databases, APIs, and messaging. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of serverless computing, cloud event-driven design, and microservices architecture. - Build scalable backend APIs using API Gateway and AWS Lambda with modern code practices. - Configure secure data storage using DynamoDB and S3 while applying least-privilege security policies. - Implement asynchronous task processing and messaging using SQS, SNS, and EventBridge. - Deploy infrastructure as code automatically using the Serverless Framework. - Monitor and troubleshoot serverless applications using CloudWatch logs and metrics. The course begins with the core terminology and basic building blocks of cloud services before guiding you step-by-step through the process of constructing your multi-store architecture. You will read clear explanations, analyze structured code configurations, and apply best practices for security and performance. This course is designed for backend developers, software engineers, and cloud beginners who want to transition to serverless architectures. No prior AWS experience is required, though basic programming knowledge is helpful. Start your journey into cloud development and learn to build highly scalable serverless systems.
