Backend to Production: Serverless Architecture with AWS
Details
Tired of just learning theory? It's time to build like a professional.
Welcome to our first major technical workshop under the new AWS Student Builder Group identity! This is NOT a theoretical course or a vague introduction to the cloud. This is a complete immersion into a real-world enterprise workflow.
In this hands-on workshop, we will bridge the gap between local development and cloud production. You will learn how to design a clean backend API, understand modern serverless architecture, and deploy it live on AWS.
🔥 What you will learn:
- Part 1: Backend Engineering: Move from "just coding" to true software design. Learn REST API architecture, clean code practices, error handling, and tools like Git and Postman.
- Part 2: AWS Cloud Fundamentals: Understand why companies are moving to Serverless. We will break down key services: AWS Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB/RDS, and IAM security.
- Part 3: The "Build" Phase: Pure hands-on practice. Create your Lambda function, connect it to API Gateway, and deploy a serverless API that is accessible via a public URL.
- Part 4: Production & Integration: Adopt the professional mindset. Learn how to test your API in production, manage logs with CloudWatch, and understand basic security tokens.
🎯 Expected Outcome: You won't just leave with notes. Every participant will leave with a functional API deployed online, along with the professional tricks and standards used by modern cloud engineers.
⚠️ Prerequisites:
- Bring your laptop.
- CRITICAL: You must create a free AWS account before attending the event to save time.
- Basic knowledge of programming (any language) will be helpful. We will provide a starter project so no one gets left behind!
