What's the project's idea ?

Create a builder plate application using AWS's technologies like DynamoDB, EventBridge, AppSync, Cognito and Serverless Framework as deployment tool.

To achieve this, I created an simple blog using event driven design architecture and serverless technologies

About the technologies

I chose to implement a monorepo for the whole services, this approach provide me more coding speed, however when the application start to grow I would move out to different repositories.

General technologies

• TypeScript (Lambda programming language)
• Serverless Framework (Deployment tool) https://www.serverless.com/

AWS Technologies

• AppSync (graphQL)
• Lambda functions (nodejs)
• DynamoDB
• EventBridge
• SQS (queue)

External services

• Algolia - Search engine
