Serverless computing makes the life of a developer easy by eliminating the pains of managing servers. You only need to write code—the serverless cloud services, such as AWS Lambda Functions, take care of infrastructure on their own. The Serverless framework provides easy to use commands and dashboards to make it even easier to use cloud services. In this course, you’ll learn what serverless computing is and how the Serverless framework works. You’ll then get hands-on experience developing and deploying an AWS Lambda Function. Next, you’ll learn how to provide additional libraries using Layers in AWS Lambda. Having covered the basics, you’ll then deploy an end-to-end machine learning pipeline to the AWS cloud with a serverless approach. Mastery over the serverless framework will give you the ability to focus on your machine learning problem and pipeline, instead of worrying about infrastructure management. This will help you get your machine learning applications to market faster and scale them seamlessly!
