A practical, real-world introduction to AWS tools and concepts
Amazon Web Services for Mobile Developers: Building Apps with AWS
presents a professional view of cloud computing and AWS for experienced
iOS/Android developers and technical/solution architects. Cloud
computing is a rapidly expanding ecosystem, and working professionals
need a practical resource to bring them up-to-date on tools that are
rapidly becoming indispensable; this book helps expand your skill set by
introducing you to AWS offerings that can make your job easier, with a
focus on real-world application. Author and mobile applications
developer Abhishek Mishra shows you how to create IAM accounts and try
out some of the most popular services, including EC2, Lambda, Mobile
Analytics, Device Farm, and more. You'll build a chat application in
both Swift (iOS) and Java (Andoid), running completely off AWS
Infrastructure to explore SDK installation, Xcode, Cognito
authentication, DynamoDB, Amazon SNA Notifications, and other useful
tools. By actually using the tools as you learn about them, you develop
a more intuitive understanding that feels less like a shift and more
like a streamlined integration.
If you have prior experience with Swift or Java and a solid knowledge of
web services, this book can help you quickly take your skills to the
next level with a practical approach to learning that translates easily
into real-world use.
