AWS Serverless Microservices with Patterns and Best Practices - Developing Infrastructure with CDK - Create Lambda Funct

The video tutorial covers the process of creating an API Gateway using AWS CDK, focusing on integrating it with AWS Lambda through Lambda proxy integration. It explains the steps to set up a Lambda Rest API construct, define necessary properties, and integrate the Lambda function. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using AWS CDK documentation for guidance and highlights the efficiency of using Lambda Rest API constructs compared to traditional methods.

What is the primary purpose of adding an API Gateway in front of a Lambda function?

• To enhance security

• To expose a public HTTP endpoint

• To reduce latency

• To provide a graphical user interface

What does the Lambda proxy integration do?

• It caches the API responses

• It balances the load

• It encrypts the data

• It directly routes requests to the Lambda function

Which construct is used to integrate API Gateway with a Lambda function?

• Lambda Function Construct

• API Gateway Construct

• Lambda Rest API Construct

• AWS CDK Construct

What is the main property that needs to be specified for a Lambda Rest API?

• Lambda Function

• Security Group

• API Key

• Endpoint URL

What is the default behavior of the proxy setting in a Lambda Rest API?

• It proxies all requests to the Lambda function

• It caches all requests

• It logs all requests

• It blocks all requests

Where can you find detailed information about AWS CDK constructs?

• AWS CDK Official Documentation

• AWS Lambda Console

• AWS Billing Dashboard

What is a common practice when using Amazon API Gateway with AWS Lambda?

• Using a separate database

• Using a Lambda Rest API construct

• Using a third-party API

• Using a local server
