My article is for everyone! Non-members can click on this link and jump straight into the full text!!
The main aim of this article is to access the AWS Lambda function with API Gateway.
What is AWS Lambda?
- AWS Lambda is a Function-as-a-Service offering from Amazon Web Services.
- Using this we can interact with most of the services of AWS.
- We can write Lambda functions in multiple languages(Python, Java, Go, Node, etc).
And for this article, we will use Python while writing the Lambda functions.
What is AWS API Gateway?
- Amazon API Gateway is a managed service that allows developers to define the HTTP endpoints of a REST API or a WebSocket API and connect those endpoints with the corresponding backend business logic.
- It also handles authentication, access control, monitoring, and tracing of API requests.
Why do we need to integrate?
- To access the AWS Lambda function over the HTTP methods.
Now let's start creating the AWS Lambda Function first(चलिये शुरू करते हैं ! )
