Building serverless applications with infrastructure as code
Mastering AWS SAM
AWS Online Tech Talks
The AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) is an open-source framework for building serverless applications, and in this tech talk you’ll learn how to use SAM templates to manage serverless infrastructure as code. From serverless specific resources to pseudo parameters, you’ll learn how to construct highly flexible and re-usable SAM templates to manage your serverless application. You’ll also learn best practices for using the AWS SAM CLI in conjunction with SAM templates to develop and debug serverless applications on your local machine.
Using AWS AppConfig with AWS Lambda Extensions
AWS code example
This is an example of how AWS AppConfig can be used with AWS Lambda and Lambda Extensions. Using AppConfig to separate your application configuration from your application code is good practice. By using that, you are able to deploy configuration changes independently from your code. AWS AppConfig helps us achieve that.
SAM AWS init
Learning AWS SAM series
In this video I do an in depth view of the AWS SAM CLI command, sam init. The `sam init` command Initializes a serverless application with an AWS SAM template. The template can be one of the AWS managed templates or a custom template maintained by you. The AWS managed templates provide a folder structure for your Lambda functions, and configures the Lambda functions with an event source such as an Amazon API Gateway, an Amazon S3 bucket, Amazon DynamoDB table, or any number of other event sources available in SAM. This project includes everything you need to get started and to eventually extend it into a production-scale application.
AWS SSM Parameter Store and AWS SecretsManager in AWS SAM templates
Sessions With SAM
In this session we cover using AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store and the AWS SecretsManager within AWS SAM templates. Using these services helps developers store account specific secrets that are easily utilized by SAM on application creation and updates.
SAM AWS build
AWS documentation
The sam build command processes your AWS SAM template file, application code, and any applicable language-specific files and dependencies, and copies build artifacts in the format and location expected by subsequent steps in your workflow. You specify dependencies in a manifest file that you include in your application, such as requirements.txt for Python functions, or package.json for Node.js functions.

Installing AWS SAM
AWS SAM installation instructions
AWS SAM provides you with a command line tool, the AWS SAM CLI, that makes it easy for you to create and manage serverless applications. You need to install and configure a few things in order to use the AWS SAM CLI. Read full instructions here.
