Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll build a new recommendation service for a travel application that’s migrating to microservices. Taking on the role of a software engineer for SimpleTravel, you’ll use AWS Lambda functions to quickly implement production-ready microservices. You’ll start by implementing Lambda functions using the AWS Console, and then script them with AWS Command Line Interface.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
