Learn about Serverless w/ Lambda functions

Peter Traeg talks about serverless computing using AWS Lambda.

The term "serverless computing" is all the rage, but what is it? In this session we'll explore AWS Lambda which is Amazon's solution for "serverless" execution of code. We'll look at ways in which Lambda can become a part of nearly any solution built on top of AWS. I'll provide a few simple examples of Lambda functions. 

We'll also cover a few challenges the standard AWS development tools present and how some 3rd party tooling helps overcome those. Given that we have a wide variety of attendees at the AWS meetup this session will not be "code heavy" and prior programming experience is not necessary.
