Exposing Lambda Functions as Managed APIs

Tuesday, April 21, 2020

With the increased presence of cloud and hosted services, enterprises are relying more on cloud services to reap benefits of economies of scale, gradually shifting the burdens of maintaining infrastructure to cloud providers. Functions as a service (FaaS) is the next step in this shift. FaaS focuses on running an operation on demand without having to worry about the infrastructure or the scale.

AWS Lambdas provide an easy way to create serverless operations, helping enterprises to reduce their infrastructure costs. Yet at times, these transitions are hindered due to the need of changing consumer apps. WSO2 API Manager 3.1 makes this transition smoother by allowing organizations to expose RESTFul interfaces using Lambdas.

WSO2 API Manager 3.1 enables you to secure, throttle, manage, and monitor APIs created out of Lambda operations, minimizing impact on consumer applications.

During the webinar, we will cover:

  • How you can use Lambdas for Backend processing
  • Exposing a Lambda function as a REST API in WSO2 API Manager
  • Underlying architecture and different design options that are available for you
