In this chapter, we used AWS services such as CloudFormation, Lambda, SAM, Cloud9, and CodeDeploy for deploying big data and serverless applications. We showed the use of the CloudFormation template and the process of authoring and deploying serverless applications.

In this book, we started our coverage of AWS cloud by describing basic cloud concepts. Then, we presented a detailed example, and focused our attention on design and implementation of typical non-functional requirements, including scalability, high-availability, and security. Finally, in the last three chapters, we shifted our focus to the design, implementation, and deployment of the next generation of applications being deployed on the cloud, including streaming applications, machine learning, and serverless applications.
