How We Built a Serverless Backend Using GraalVM, AWS Lambda and Astra DB (Part 1)

1

Apache Cassandra

Astra DB is a multi-cloud database-as-a-service (DBaaS) based on Apache Cassandra™ that eliminates the overhead of installing, operating, and scaling your own database installation. Essentially, Astra DB helps developers reduce deployment time, costs, and nightmares. Astra DB also equips you with a few data APIs to build applications faster, which leads us to our next big player — Stargate.

AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda offers managed functions as a service (FaaS) based on micro virtual machines. To create a Lambda function you provide the code to execute, e.g. a Python script or a Jar file. The function can be invoked on demand based on a variety of triggers.
