In this lab, you will deploy a secure serverless web application using AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, and Amazon Cognito. The application will use Cognito for authentication and Lambda functions for backend logic. You'll also integrate Amazon S3 to host static assets and manage secrets with AWS Secrets Manager. This hands-on experience will demonstrate how to create a robust authentication flow and manage sensitive data securely using AWS services.
A tech startup, TechChain, is developing a new serverless application to provide its users with a fast, secure, and interactive experience. As a developer, you are tasked with setting up the authentication system and backend logic using Amazon Cognito for user management and AWS Lambda for processing RESTful requests via API Gateway. TechChain wants to ensure that user data is managed securely and that all interactions with backend services are authenticated.
