AWS Developer: An Introduction to AWS Lambda
-
Hi ITProTV:
I would like to know if ITProtv offers any course training on AWS Developer: An Introduction to AWS Lambda? I know that Pluralsight does offer this since this is where I got the information, Is there any demand for this type of work (AWS Lambda) I am by no means a developer or programming, but learning some programming language (Javascipt, HTML, CSS, Python etc) I saw a small video course about Lambda, on pluralsight where you can build Facebook bots?

There are some parts of our AWS Developer, AWS DevOps Engineer, and AWS Big Data courses that demonstrate some parts of building a simple application using Lambda. However, we do not have a dedicate Lambda course at this time. -
Hi Justin:
Thank you for the quick reply, I myself not a big fan of programming or DevOP type of work, but wanted to know if Lambda actually a programming language that eventually leads to a certification and what type of tool you can use this for?

@Daniel-Loyer,
Lambda is just the service name in AWS. The programming language is fairly flexible, but writing Lambda functions in JavaScript or Python is probably the easiest way to get started. Lambda, as far as I know, is not exclusively the object of current or future exams (things can change). Typically, I like to use Lambda (initially) to write functions to act as a cron job or when you want to process files like resizing images. However, you can use it to build web services, data processors, and more.Hope that helps.
