Overview of this book

Managing physical servers will be a thing of the past once you’re able to harness the power of serverless computing. If you’re already prepped with the basics of serverless computing, Serverless Programming Cookbook will help you take the next step ahead. This recipe-based guide provides solutions to problems you might face while building serverless applications. You'll begin by setting up Amazon Web Services (AWS), the primary cloud provider used for most recipes. The next set of recipes will cover various components to build a Serverless application including REST APIs, database, user management, authentication, web hosting, domain registration, DNS management, CDN, messaging, notifications and monitoring. The book also introduces you to the latest technology trends such as Data Streams, Machine Learning and NLP. You will also see patterns and practices for using various services in a real world application. Finally, to broaden your understanding of Serverless computing, you'll also cover getting started guides for other cloud providers such as Azure, Google Cloud Platform and IBM cloud. By the end of this book, you’ll have acquired the skills you need to build serverless applications efficiently using various cloud offerings.

Your first DynamoDB table

In this recipe, we will create our first DynamoDB table. Amazon DynamoDB is the primary database in AWS for building serverless applications. DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database and you do not have to manage any servers. Unlike most NoSQL databases, DynamoDB, also supports consistent reads, but with an additional cost.

Attributes in DynamoDB are synonymous with columns, and items are synonymous with rows in a relational database. However, there is no table-level schema in DynamoDB. You can have different set of attributes in different items (rows). You can also have an attribute with the same name but different types in different items.
