SDK for Python (Boto3)
Shows how to use the AWS SDK for Python (Boto3) with the Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) API and AWS Chalice to create a REST API backed by an Amazon Aurora database. The web service is fully serverless and represents a simple lending library where patrons can borrow and return books. Learn how to:

  • Create and manage a serverless Aurora database cluster.
  • Use AWS Secrets Manager to manage database credentials.
  • Implement a data storage layer that uses Amazon RDS to move data into and out of the database.
  • Use AWS Chalice to deploy a serverless REST API to Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda.
  • Use the Requests package to send requests to the web service. For complete source code and instructions on how to set up and run, see the full example on GitHub.

Services used in this example

  • API Gateway
  • Lambda
  • Amazon RDS
  • Secrets Manager
