The Serverless Framwork¶

• Serverless Framework (https://serverless.com) aims to ease the pain of creating, deploying, managing and debugging lambda functions.
• It integrates well with CI/CD tools
• It has CloudFormation support so your entire stack can be deployed using this Framework

Installing Serverless¶

• Install dependencies (node & AWS CLI)
• Install the serverless framework
• Setting up AWS for the serverless-admin user
• Download credentials on your machine
• Setup Serverless to use these credentials

# 1. install node
# ...
# 2. install serverless
sudo npm i -g serverless
# 3. setup serverless
serverless config credentials --provider aws --key XXX --secret YYY --profile serverless-admin

For the access credentials we are going to create a new IAM user serverless-admin.
