Description
In this course you will learn how to:

Build a REST API using Node.js alongside the Express library

Persist data using AWS DynamoDB

You will learn how to develop using DynamoDB on your local computer before deploying your app in production

Containerize your app using Docker

Push your app to AWS Elastic Container Registry

Host your app using AWS Fargate & AWS Load Balancing

Enable auto-scaling which means AWS will take care of adding / removing compute resources to cater to demand spikes on your app

Point a domain name to your app so it's easily accessible

Who is this course for?

jаvascript beginners

Developers wanting to learn how to deploy apps using AWS Fargate & Load balancing

Why is jаvascript and Node so awesome?

Well, it's the most used programming language in the world

Heaps of community support when you encounter bugs and issues

Loads of companies looking for jаvascript developers

Why is AWS Fargate so amazing?

It automatically provisions and monitors the load on our compute resources so we don't have to

It auto-scales our app so meet traffic loads, and scales back to reduce costs

It turns a traditional app into a "serverless" one

Learning methodology:

We take a learn-by-doing approach. In a matter of minutes, you'll have a running NodeJS Express application. Over the course of the lectures you'll develop your very own To Do List backend application.
