Why are we
here today?

No servers to provision
or manage
Scales with usage
Never pay for idle Availability and fault
tolerance built in
Serverless means…

SERVICES (ANYTHING)
Changes in
data state
Requests to
endpoints
Changes in
resource state
EVENT SOURCE FUNCTION
Node.js
Python
Java
C#
Go
Serverless applications

Anatomy of a Lambda function
Handler() function
Function to be executed
upon invocation
Event object
Data sent during
Lambda Function
Invocation
Context object
Methods available to
interact with runtime
information (request ID,
log group, etc.)
public String handleRequest(Book book, Context context) {
saveBook(book);
return book.getName() + " saved!";
}

Lambda permissions model
Fine grained security controls for both
execution and invocation:
Execution policies:
• Define what AWS resources/API calls can this
function access via IAM
• Used in streaming invocations
• E.g. “Lambda function A can read from
DynamoDB table users”
Function policies:
• Used for sync and async invocations
• E.g. “Actions on bucket X can invoke Lambda
function Z"
• Resource policies allow for cross account
access

AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM)
CloudFormation extension optimized for
serverless
New serverless resource types: functions, APIs,
and tables

Open specification (Apache 2.0)
- SAM Translator recently open sourced!
https://github.com/awslabs/serverless-application-model

Create templates of your infrastructure
CloudFormation provisions AWS resources
based on dependency needs
Version control/replicate/update templates like
code
Integrates with development, CI/CD,
management tools
JSON and YAML supported

AWS SAM CLI SAM Local
Relaunched/GA’d on May 8th!
CLI tool for local building, validating, testing of
serverless apps
Works with Lambda functions and “proxy-style”
APIs
Response object and function logs available on
your local machine
Uses open source docker-lambda images to mimic
Lambda’s execution environment:
• Emulates timeout, memory limits, runtimes
https://github.com/awslabs/aws-sam-cli

SAM Local CLI
$ sam --help
Usage: sam [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) CLI
The AWS Serverless Application Model extends AWS CloudFormation to provide
a simplified way of defining the Amazon API Gateway APIs, AWS Lambda
functions, and Amazon DynamoDB tables needed by your serverless
application. You can find more in-depth guide about the SAM specification
here: https://github.com/awslabs/serverless-application-model.
Options:
--debug Turn on debug logging
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
Commands:
init Initialize a serverless application with a...
package Package an AWS SAM application. This is an alias for 'aws
cloudformation package'.
local Run your Serverless application locally for...
validate Validate an AWS SAM template.
deploy Deploy an AWS SAM application. This is an alias for 'aws
cloudformation deploy'.

SAM Template Capabilities
• Can mix in other non-SAM CloudFormation
resources in the same template
• i.e. S3, Kinesis, Step Functions
• Supports use of Parameters, Mappings,
Outputs, etc
• Supports Intrinsic Functions
• Can use ImportValue
(exceptions for RestApiId, Policies, StageName attributes)
• YAML or JSON

Lambda Environment Variables
• Key-value pairs that you can dynamically pass to
your function
• Available via standard environment variable APIs
such as process.env for Node.js or os.environ for
Python
• Can optionally be encrypted via AWS Key
Management Service (KMS)
• Allows you to specify in IAM what roles have access to
the keys to decrypt the information
• Useful for creating environments per stage (i.e. dev,
testing, production)

API Gateway Stage Variables
• Stage variables act like environment variables
• Use stage variables to store configuration values
• Stage variables are available in the $context object
• Values are accessible from most fields in API Gateway
• Lambda function ARN
• HTTP endpoint
• Custom authorizer function name
• Parameter mappings

Lambda Alias Traffic Shifting & AWS SAM
AutoPublishAlias
By adding this property and specifying an
alias name, AWS SAM will do the
following:
• Detect when new code is being
deployed based on changes to the
Lambda function's Amazon S3 URI.
• Create and publish an updated version
of that function with the latest code.
• Create an alias with a name you
provide (unless an alias already exists)
and points to the updated version of
the Lambda function.

Best
Practices

SAM Best Practices
• Use Parameters and Mappings when possible to build
dynamic templates based on user inputs and pseudo
parameters such as AWS::Region
• Use the Globals section to simplify templates
• Use ExportValue & ImportValue to share resource
information across stacks
• Build out multiple environments, such as for
Development, Test, Production and even DR using the
same template, even across accounts
SAM Template
Source
Control
Dev
Test
Prod

SAM Best Practices
• Unless function handlers share code, split them into their
own independent Lambda functions files or binaries
• Another option is to use language specific packages to share
common code between functions
• Unless independent Lambda functions share event
sources, split them into their own code repositories with
their own SAM templates
• Locally lint your YAML or JSON SAM files before
committing them. Then do it again in your CI/CD process

A serverless application delivery pipeline:
This pipeline:
• Five Stages
• Builds code artifact
• Three deployed to “Environments”
• Uses SAM/CloudFormation to
deploy artifact and other AWS
resources
• Has Lambda custom actions for
running my own testing functions
• Integrates with a 3rd party
tool/service
• Has a manual approval before
deploying to production
• Creates a client SDK at the end
