SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the development of serverless applications on AWS Lambda, enabling efficient backend development for APIs and event-driven architectures.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Serverless APIs: Build RESTful APIs using API Gateway and Lambda functions.
  • Event-Driven Architectures: Process events from SQS, S3, DynamoDB Streams, and more.
  • Infrastructure as Code: Define serverless infrastructure using AWS SAM or AWS CDK.
  • Use Case: Develop a scalable backend for a mobile application that processes user uploads to S3 and stores metadata in DynamoDB.

Quick Start

Use the aws-lambda skill to create a basic TypeScript handler for API Gateway events.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a serverless API using AWS Lambda and TypeScript?▼

To build a serverless API with AWS Lambda and TypeScript, you create Lambda handler patterns that process API Gateway events, using the AWS SDK to integrate with backend services like DynamoDB for data operations.

What's the best way to define infrastructure for event-driven AWS Lambda functions?▼

The best way to define infrastructure for event-driven AWS Lambda functions is using infrastructure as code tools like AWS SAM or AWS CDK, which allow you to configure event sources such as SQS, S3, and DynamoDB Streams.

Can I process S3 events and store metadata in DynamoDB using AWS Lambda?▼

Yes, you can process S3 events and store metadata in DynamoDB using AWS Lambda by building an event-driven architecture where the Lambda handler receives S3 triggers and uses the AWS SDK to write data to DynamoDB.

Do I need AWS CDK or AWS SAM to develop serverless applications with TypeScript?▼

You do not strictly need AWS CDK or AWS SAM to write TypeScript handlers, but they are supported for defining serverless infrastructure as code, which streamlines configuring API Gateway and event source integrations for your applications.

How does an AWS Lambda handler process DynamoDB Streams events in TypeScript?▼

An AWS Lambda handler processes DynamoDB Streams events in TypeScript by receiving the stream records as an event payload, parsing the data changes, and executing business logic or further AWS SDK operations based on the modifications.
