• 3.  AWS SAM Specification Components
  11m 50s
  In this video, you’ll learn more about the key components of AWS SAM specifications used to define serverless applications. You’ll learn more about these components along with other details like the supported functions and the API gateway extensions. A SAM or a cloud formation template is a JSON or YAML formatted text file that describes the AWS infrastructure. Onscreen, you’ll see an illustrated sample implementation figure that depicts a YAML formatted template fragment. FREE ACCESS
• 4.  AWS Serverless Application Repository
  9m 47s
  In this video, you’ll learn more about the role of AWS Serverless Application Repository and the approach of storing, sharing, assembling and deploying serverless architectures. You’ll learn the AWS Serverless Application Repository is a managed repository for serverless applications. You can access this repository through the AWS console, the SAM CLI, or the AWS SDKs. FREE ACCESS
• 5.  Publishing to AWS Serverless Application Repository
  11m 54s
  In this video, you’ll learn how to publish sample serverless applications to AWS Serverless Application Repository. For this demo, you’ll need to have installed and configured AWS CLI and AWS SAM CLI. You’ll also need to have installed Docker which is required for creating containers to host serverless applications. You’ll be using the Command Prompt to perform this demonstration. FREE ACCESS
• 6.  Deploying from AWS Serverless Application Repository
  4m 32s
  In this video, you’ll learn how to deploy serverless applications from AWS serverless application repository. You’ll see that when you publish serverless applications to AWS serverless application repository, you make it available for others to find and deploy. You’ll explore and demonstrate to deploy the same application from AWS Serverless Application Repository. You’ll first log into your AWS account, access the AWS Management Console, and launch the AWS serverless application repository homepage. FREE ACCESS
• 7.  Messaging with AWS Using SNS and SQS
  12m 55s
  In this video, you’ll learn the benefits of messaging and the features afforded by Amazon SNS and SQS to implement fully managed messaging services. You’ll by looking at some of the benefits afforded with the implementation of messaging using the messaging services provided by AWS. AWS provides messaging services that enable different software systems and end devices to communicate and exchange information. These systems and devices use different programming languages and are on different platforms. FREE ACCESS
• 8.  Implementing Fanout Messaging Using SNS and SQS
  11m
  In this video, you’ll learn how to implement Fanout Messaging using Amazon Simple Notification Service and Amazon Simple Queue Service. In message-oriented middleware solutions, fanout is a messaging pattern used to model information exchange that delivers a message to one or multiple destinations in parallel without having to wait for a response to that message. You’ll learn how to implement a fanout messaging scenario where you’ll push messages to multiple subscribers. FREE ACCESS
• 9.  Implementing Message Filtering Pattern Using SNS
  15m 20s
  In this video, you’ll learn how to implement message filtering patterns using Amazon Simple Notification Service. An SNS topic subscriber receives every message that is being published to the topic. But a filter policy can be applied to the topic subscription to send a subset of the messages to certain subscribers or ignore them altogether. A filter policy is a simple JSON object containing attributes that define which messages the subscriber receives. FREE ACCESS
• 10.  Components and Benefits of DynamoDB
  8m 50s
  In this video, you’ll explore the core components, features, and benefits of Amazon DynamoDB. You’ll start by exploring some of the key features and capabilities that are afforded by Amazon DynamoDB. Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that provides fast and predictable performance with seamless scalability. It helps offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling distributed databases. FREE ACCESS
• 11.  Creating and Working with DynamoDB Table
  8m 34s
  In this video, you’ll learn how to create a simple table and then add, query, and delete data using the DynamoDB console. First, you’ll need to launch the DynamoDB console from the AWS Management Console. You’ll input the search keyword, DynamoDB, in the search text field located at the toolbar. Then, you’ll select the first resulting option titled DynamoDB from under the Services section to launch the DynamoDB dashboard or console. FREE ACCESS
• 12.  Using Python and AWS SDK with DynamoDB
  12m 49s
  In this video, you’ll learn to use Python and AWS SDK for Python to enable DynamoDB APIs to interact with the tables created in DynamoDB. You’ll need to create a DynamoDB table. To do so, you’ll be using APIs rather than creating the table from the AWS Management Console. You’ll set up the Cloud9 IDE, which is a cloud-based integrated development environment provided by AWS. You can use it to write, run, and debug code. FREE ACCESS
• 13.  AWS Developer Tools and Cloud Development Kit (CDK)
  7m 32s
  In this video, you’ll explore the prominent AWS Developer Tool services and the essential features afforded by AWS Cloud Development Toolkit. You’ll learn the concept of developers’ tools in AWS. The developers’ tools in AWS consists of tools that cater to requirements in a software development lifecycle. AWS provides developers tools for hosting, building, testing, and deploying applications. Using these tools, you can implement and continuous delivery to accelerate the software development and release cycle. FREE ACCESS
• 14.  Creating API Using AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK)
  17m 31s
  In this video, you’ll learn how to work with AWS CDK to create REST API with a GET endpoint. AWS CDK is a software development framework for defining cloud infrastructures with code and provisioning them through AWS cloud formation. An AWS CDK application defines one or more stacks that contain constructs, each of which defines one or more concrete AWS resource. Typically, you’ll instantiate constructs within a stack, to declare them to AWS. FREE ACCESS
• 15.  Course Summary
  2m 13s
  In this video, you’ll summarize what you’ve learned. You’ve learned to publish sample applications to AWS Serverless Application Repository, and deploy applications from AWS Serverless Application Repository, implement fan-out messaging and message filtering, enable DynamoDB APIs to interact with tables created in DynamoDB, and create REST API with GET endpoint. You explored features and benefits of AWS Serverless application model, roles of AWS Serverless Application Repository and storing, sharing, assembling, and deploying Serverless architectures.
