Course Description
Dive into the world of backend development with our comprehensive "Python Course with Lambda and API Gateway for Backend Development." This course belongs to the Information Technology category and is part of the Multipurpose Programming Languages subcategory, focusing on Python alongside other versatile languages like Ruby, Java, and C. With 142 pages of rich content, this course is meticulously crafted to provide a deep understanding of both Python programming fundamentals and AWS services crucial for backend development.
The journey begins with an Introduction to Python, setting the stage for delving into the Python language fundamentals. You'll explore basic and advanced Python syntax, data types, operators, flow control, functions, string manipulation, data structures, object-oriented programming, file manipulation, exception handling, and the extensive standard libraries available in Python. Furthermore, there is a special segment dedicated to Python for Data Science, ensuring you get a holistic view of the language's capabilities.
As you advance, you will gain a solid grasp on control structures, data structures, and functions in Python. The course also covers Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in detail, including principles like inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction. Design patterns and unit testing in OOP provide a professional edge to your coding practices. Not to forget, file manipulation, exception handling, and unit tests round out your foundational skills.
Transitioning from Python fundamentals, the course introduces backend development concepts and backend system architecture. You'll then dive into AWS Lambda, discovering how to configure and manage Lambda functions efficiently. Topics such as performance and cost optimization, environment variables, deployment, testing, error handling, versioning, and aliased Lambda functions prepare you to handle real-world backend scenarios.
To complement your Lambda skills, the course includes an in-depth exploration of AWS API Gateway. You'll learn how to configure the gateway, build RESTful APIs, manage API versions and stages, and implement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms. Integrating AWS API Gateway with other AWS services and monitoring the gateway using AWS CloudWatch equips you with the tools needed for maintaining high-performing and secure APIs.
Beyond theoretical knowledge, the course emphasizes practical backend development, including developing and managing both REST and GraphQL APIs using AWS Lambda and API Gateway. You'll handle HTTP requests, authentication, authorization, monitoring, debugging, error management, and optimizing performance. Moreover, the course covers best practices and performance-enhancing techniques for API Gateway and Lambda integration.
Concluding the course are advanced topics in continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) for Lambda functions and API Gateway. A section on monitoring and debugging APIs, along with strategies for error management and performance optimization, ensures you are well-prepared to develop scalable and resilient backend applications.
Enroll in this course to transform your backend development skills, harnessing the power of Python with the robustness of AWS Lambda and API Gateway.
