It’s natural in many projects to put the responsibility of responding to API calls, with their highly variable computing needs, on the same infrastructure that serves web pages and assets.

Bill Boulden walks you through creating a functioning serverless API that coexists alongside conventionally served web pages using AWS Lambda and API Gateway. Topics include:
