SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

AWS serverless teams often struggle to translate API and event-driven requirements into correct, secure, cost-effective Lambda and API Gateway configurations, while keeping deployments maintainable with AWS SAM.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • AWS SAM Infrastructure as Code: Generate deployable templates for serverless stacks (including advanced patterns).
  • Lambda Best Practices: Reduce cold starts, limit dependencies, and implement robust error/async handling.
  • API Gateway + Authorization: Configure REST or HTTP APIs with routing, CORS, logging, tracing, and authorizers.
  • Event-Driven Architectures: Wire S3, SQS, and EventBridge triggers to Lambda with appropriate filtering and batching.

Use case: You need to deploy a set of Lambda-backed endpoints (REST or HTTP) plus event consumers for uploads and queue processing using SAM, while ensuring good performance and proper error handling.

Quick Start

Ask the AI assistant to generate an AWS SAM template that defines a Lambda-backed GET /users API with authorizer support and an S3-triggered Lambda for processing uploaded JSON files.

Frequently Asked Questions about aws-serverless

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy AWS Lambda APIs with SAM and API Gateway authorization?▼

To deploy AWS Lambda APIs with SAM, you generate a serverless template defining your Lambda function and API Gateway routes, then configure authorizers and CORS settings directly within the SAM resource definitions for secure REST or HTTP endpoints.

What is the best way to reduce Lambda cold starts in serverless applications?▼

Reducing Lambda cold starts involves limiting deployment dependencies and applying Lambda best practices within your SAM configuration. This skill provides guidance for optimizing performance and implementing robust error handling in event-driven serverless stacks.

Can I use AWS SAM to configure event-driven architectures with S3 and SQS triggers?▼

Yes, you can use AWS SAM to configure event-driven architectures by defining event source mappings that wire S3, SQS, and EventBridge triggers to Lambda functions, including appropriate batching and event filtering within the serverless template.

Does this serverless skill support both REST and HTTP API configuration in API Gateway?▼

Yes, this serverless skill supports both REST and HTTP API configuration in API Gateway. It helps you define routing, logging, and tracing for your Lambda-backed endpoints while maintaining deployable and maintainable AWS SAM templates.

Why does my Lambda function fail when processing asynchronous SQS events?▼

Lambda functions processing asynchronous SQS events often fail due to improper error handling or incorrect event source mapping configuration. This skill provides guidance on implementing robust async error handling patterns and correct SAM trigger wiring.
