Hands-on AWS Lambda Labs: Essential Lab Exercises

About this course

This course is designed to deepen learners' proficiency in AWS Lambda, Amazon’s powerful serverless computing service. AWS Lambda allows developers to execute code without managing servers, making it essential for reducing costs, building efficient architectures, and deploying microservices effectively in cloud environments. Through hands-on exercises, you will gain practical experience in creating, deploying, and troubleshooting Lambda functions. Each lab is designed to reinforce theoretical concepts, covering essential topics such as navigating the lambda console, scaling functions, integrating with services such as EventBridge and CloudWatch, managing concurrency, and optimizing function performance.

What you will learn

• AWS Lambda runs code serverlessly, managed via the console and integrates with IAM, EC2, and CloudWatch for automation and security.
• Monitor Lambda with CloudWatch to track performance, troubleshoot issues, and optimize resources.
• Set concurrency and VPC for secure, scalable Lambda; clean up resources to control costs.
