FREE: Create a Node JS backend app and host it on AWS
In this course we will:
- Build a very simple to-do app (backend only)
- Containerize (dockerize) the app
- We will then configure AWS Fargate to host our app.
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
