Deploying the Backend

Deploying the backend for your dynamic e-commerce website is accomplished using the AWS SAM CLI in combination with CloudFormation. With these tools, you can easily deploy serverless services such as API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB.

Main Tools Used:

  • SAM CLI: A command-line tool for developing, testing, and deploying serverless applications. SAM CLI makes it easy to deploy API Gateway, Lambda functions, and other serverless resources on AWS.
  • CloudFormation: An infrastructure as code service that allows you to automate the deployment and management of AWS resources.

In this section, you will learn how to deploy a serverless backend for your website using SAM CLI, including the creation of resources such as API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB.

Note: Please ensure you have completed the environment preparation steps (including installing the SAM CLI and configuring AWS IAM) before starting the backend deployment.
