Description
(updated December 2022)
This course is dedicated to helping you learn AWS Lambda using a practical approach. Absolutely zero AWS Lambda is required to get started!
What makes this course different than others?
After helping hundreds of thousands of develops learn through my YouTube channel (Be a Better Dev), I found there was very little material that focused on learning AWS Lambda from a practical perspective. Much of the content being offered on Udemy and elsewhere focuses mainly on theory, with very commentary on what it actually takes to build and run Lambda based applications at scale.
This course leverages my 7 years of industry experience building Lambda based applications. I've built small microservices fronting APIs, and large event processing systems handling millions of requests of day.
This course is the culmination of 7 years of experience and includes helpful practical tips gained from real world usage. You'll learn:
AWS Lambda Fundamentals
How To Create, Deploy, and Debug Lambda Applications
How To Develop and Deploy using CDK
Advanced concepts such as Concurrency, Monitoring, and Service Integration
3 Practical Projects that Integrate With Other AWS Services (Cloudwatch Events, API Gateway, and SQS).
And much much more...
In addition to that, I will be constantly updating course content as new features get released for AWS Lambda. So what are you waiting for? Enroll now and lets start learning AWS Lambda!

My name is Daniel Galati and I am a Senior Software Engineer working at a big tech company.
I've been working in tech for nearly 10 years, 7 of which have been while working with AWS technologies.
I also have a Youtube channel called 'Be A Better Dev' where I help my audience of more than 75,000 users learn the fundamentals of AWS and Software Development.
When I'm not working on my YouTube channel, you'll find me reading software development books or on my bike (or both at the same time!).
