This instructor-led 4-day workshop shows how to use Java to implement and deploy a Serverless architecture on AWS. It makes use of the AWS SDK for Java, AWS CDK, AWS Lambda and various managed services provided by AWS. We also look at design concerns, and how to use an events-based approach to ensure scalability and cost optimization.
It also covers various ways of optimising performance and deployment for Java-based AWS Lambda functions, including looking at the new AWS Lambda SnapStart feature that improves cold loading times for Java lambda handlers.
