Serverless Frameworks on AWS
5 likes1,897 views
This document discusses serverless frameworks on AWS like AWS Lambda, the Serverless framework, Gordon, and AWS Chalice. It provides an overview of each tool and code samples to define and deploy Lambda functions from the command line or within the frameworks. Various options are presented for developing, testing, and deploying serverless applications locally and to AWS.

- 2. AWS Lambda • Announced at re:Invent 2014 • Deploy functions in Java, Python, Node.js and C# • Just code, without the infrastructure drama • Built-in scalability and high availability • Well integrated with other AWS services • Pay as you go • Combination of execution time (100ms slots) & memory used • Free tier available AWS re:Invent 2014 | (MBL202) NEW LAUNCH: Getting Started with AWS Lambda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFj27laTWQA
- 3. What can you do with AWS Lambda? • Grow ‘connective tissue’ in your AWS infrastructure – Example: http://www.slideshare.net/JulienSIMON5/building-a-serverless-pipeline • Build event-driven applications • Build APIs together with Amazon API Gateway • RESTful APIs • Resources, methods • Stages http://aws.amazon.com/lambda http://aws.amazon.com/apigateway
- 4. AWS Lambda " + " Managed services" = " Serverless architecture" Reference architectures: http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2016/06/aws-lambda-serverless-reference-architectures.html

- 7. Typical development workflow with AWS Lambda 1. Write and deploy a Lambda function 2. Create and deploy a REST API with API Gateway 3. Connect the API to the Lambda function 4. Invoke the API 5. Test, debug and repeat ;)
- 8. A simple Lambda function in Python" def lambda_handler(event,context): result = event['value1'] + event['value2'] return result aws lambda create-function --function-name add --handler myFunc.lambda_handler --runtime python2.7 --zip-file fileb://myFunc.zip --memory-size 128 --role arn:aws:iam::ACCOUNT_NUMBER:role/lambda_basic_execution curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d "{"value1":5, "value2":7}" https://API_ENDPOINT 12
- 9. That’s great, but… • No one wants to code in the AWS console (right?) • Managing functions with the AWS CLI isn’t dev-friendly • Managing APIs with the AWS CLI quite complex (low-level calls) • CloudFormation doesn’t make it easy to deploy and manage serverless applications (custom resources) • So what are the options?
- 10. Serverless tools • Development – Serverless Framework – Gordon – AWS Chalice – More frameworks: Kappa, Apex, Zappa, Docker-lambda – AWS Lambda plugin for Eclipse • Deployment – AWS Serverless Application Framework (SAM)

- 12. The Serverless framework " formerly known as JAWS: Just AWS Without Servers • Announced at re:Invent 2015 by Austen Collins and Ryan Pendergast • Supports Node.js, as well as Python and Java (with restrictions) • Auto-deploys and runs Lambda functions, locally or remotely • Auto-deploys your Lambda event sources: API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB, etc. • Creates all required infrastructure with CloudFormation • Simple configuration in YML http://github.com/serverless/serverless https://serverless.com AWS re:Invent 2015 | (DVO209) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_U6luQ6I90 & https://vimeo.com/141132756

- 17. AWS Chalice " Think of it as a serverless framework for Flask apps" • Released in Jul’16, still in beta • Just add your Python code – Deploy with a single call and zero config – The API is created automatically, the IAM policy is auto-generated • Run APIs locally on port 8000 (similar to Flask) • Fast & lightweight framework – 100% boto3 calls (AWS SDK for Python) à fast – No integration with CloudFormation à no creation of event sources https://github.com/awslabs/chalice https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/preview-the-python-serverless-microframework-for-aws/

- 20. Summing things up Serverless The most popular serverless framework Built with and for Node.js. Python and Java: YMMV Rich features, many event sources Not a web framework Gordon Great challenger! Node.js, Python, Java, Scala, Golang Comparable to Serverless feature-wise Not a web framework Chalice AWS project, in beta Python only Does only one thing, but does it great Dead simple, zero config Flask web framework
