Course Overview
Build scalable apps using Node, Amazon's DynamoDB (key-value store), Docker containers & host them on with auto-scaling
In this course you will learn how to:
Build a REST API using Node.js alongside the Express library
Persist data using AWS DynamoDB
You will learn how to develop using DynamoDB on your local computer before deploying your app in production
Containerize your app using Docker
Push your app to AWS Elastic Container Registry
Host your app using AWS Fargate & AWS Load Balancing
Enable auto-scaling which means AWS will take care of adding / removing compute resources to cater to demand spikes on your app
Point a domain name to your app so it's easily accessible
Who is this course for?
Javascript beginners
Developers wanting to learn how to deploy apps using AWS Fargate & Load balancing
Why is JavaScript and Node so awesome?
Well, it's the most used programming language in the world
Heaps of community support when you encounter bugs and issues
Loads of companies looking for JavaScript developers
Why is AWS Fargate so amazing?
It automatically provisions and monitors the load on our compute resources so we don't have to
It auto-scales our app so meet traffic loads, and scales back to reduce costs
It turns a traditional app into a "serverless" one
Learning methodology:
We take a learn-by-doing approach. In a matter of minutes, you'll have a running NodeJS Express application. Over the course of the lectures you'll develop your very own To Do List backend application.

The audio quality isn't great. the information is good though. I do wonder if this was a section taken form a larger course because there seems to be some pieces missing. Specifically, a findOne() endpoint as well as some docker steps like creating a compose file and maybe creating a seed script rather than doing file io in each controller. again, maybe this was part of a larger course that I missed...
