Seats are limited, so join us.

  • ‘Watch & Learn’, or request a seat to the hands-on ‘Serverless Lab’ feature* (with access to an AWS lab account on the day)
  • Learn the difference between ‘on-premise’ and ‘Managed Serverless’ cloud solutions, with use cases demonstrating how Serverless adds value using Lambda, API Gateway and Step Functions

Lab 1: Introduction to Serverless and Building a Serverless Web Application
Covering:
  • What Serverless entails
  • Creating a static website using serverless
