Build APIs with node, Lambda & Serverless #153

Closed errietta closed 5 years ago

errietta commented 5 years ago

AWS lambda allows you to build microservices that can be triggered both through HTTP and other ways such as when something is added to a queue, or on a schedule. We'll show how it is possible to build an API which consists of small, individual functions that respond to different HTTP requests using AWS lambda and API gateway. In addition to this, we will be deploying using serverless within minutes!

@admataz I had a go at a better description, can you take a look?

admataz commented 5 years ago

Hi @errietta - thank you for the updated proposal - this is sounding more like it - and I think has a better shape and focus. I'd be interested to hear about how AWS Lambda is the right pattern for what you are doing and any practical advice you can give developers not familiar with it.

@lnug/contributors @lnug/organisers - any helpful feedback or thoughts?

How are you for the January 23rd or February 27th meetup?
we're asking speakers to confirm:

errietta commented 5 years ago

@admataz btw 2 of my colleagues would like to come but they were too late and are on the waitlist, is it ok to sort of +1? If not it's ok, don't want to be skipping the queue

admataz commented 5 years ago

hi @errietta. That's fine - please get them to sign up on meetup - and let me know the names. I will add them to the "going" list.

errietta commented 5 years ago

@admataz best way to send you the name privately?
