Course Description


Sample of the reviews:

Hello Learners, To put in one word, "Awesome" !!! To learn AWS Serverless basics programmatically. this is the course which needs to be followed step by step. I am writing this after going through first 4 sections. I went through many Udemy courses especially all the top rated ones, everyone explained theoretically. I wasn't satisfied by any of them. I needed to know the flow of how it actually works in code not just through Amazon Console. My search stopped when I found this course :) Thanks a ton Bharath for the guidance -- Rohit Kumar Singh

I recently completed the Serverless using AWS for Java Developers course, and it was an excellent learning experience. The course is well-structured and focuses on practical implementation, which is perfect for Java developers looking to leverage AWS services in a serverless architecture.

By Resmi Ramakrishnan on 11/23/2023

Java is not my strong point. In fact never worked in java projects. except for the mandatory college submission project. Hence, finding it difficult to follow along the java code in videos.

By Ulug'bek Ro'zimboyev on 11/1/2022

Hi. It is nice course, but I expected more project and real case examples.

By Jaebin Joo on 3/29/2022

Right after I got SAA-C02 certificate, the problem was that I had few real hands-on experiences with AWS services. This course will be satisfying if you're looking for great practices on serverless architectures. I've learned insights about how lambdas can react to various event sources, how they can be automatically deployed by SAM, what are sync/async/polling, etc. The teacher tells these contents in easy manner. Thank Bharath for this course!

By Eric Rybarczyk on 1/2/2022

Very good introduction to Lambda. I appreciate the inclusion of API Gateway, SNS, SQS, and also error handling and logging. The coverage of SAM toolkit and template.yaml were also good. If you complete the course and do all the coding and deployments, you will have a basic application to reference when building your own serverless applications with AWS Lambda.

By Rahul Patwardhan on 12/23/2021

Awesome Course on Serverless using AWS Lambda for Java Developers. Nice work as usual Bharath. Well structured and easy to follow. Goes over all concepts with easy to understand examples. You will need some background on AWS and Java. Great work. Highly appreciated.

By Pankaj Juneja on 9/8/2021

The instructor has really good communication skills. This is not in-depth course in lambda but a very solid start for anyone looking to learn lambda. I am confident that after completing this, anyone can figure out rest of the stuff confidently. Very practical course.

By Sriharsha Y on 8/2/2021

Couse is good and engaging, the only concern I have is - it would have been if there was a AWS documentation link left whenever we come across new configuration key (yml template configuration key). I feel sessions at end are little rushed. But over all it is good course to gain enought knowledge.

By Yohan Rangana Weerasinghe on 7/1/2021

Great course, great experience. However if Bharat can be more engaged with the questions asked in the platform, that would be great. Thank you Bharat, it is hard to find a course like this, I mean super hard. Glad I found yours. I learnt a lot. Came here as a newbie to lambda and serverless, but going out with lot of powerful things in my knowledge bank.
