Meta: Lambda (All Languages) + DynamoDB [Backend]

Current status

• Node Lambda + DD: 🗄🔧 Node.js Lambda + DynamoDB #37 WIP
• Python Lambda + DD: Seeking Engineers!
• Java Lambda + DD: Seeking Engineers!
• C# Lambda + DD: Seeking Engineers!

Similar to #21, it would be interesting to try and implement the backend using just AWS DynamoDB and Lambda functions. Something like serverless could be used to quickly scaffold the requisite API.

Lambda+Dynamo would be super cool — you down to lead this one as well? I've been really digging your code quality for the GCP version 👌

[jamesbrewerdev]

Something to consider: Lambda supports Node, Java, Python, and C#. It would be worth having each of these supported (with their respective serverless-like libraries) as we see an interest.

[EricSimons]

^ thats a cool idea. Do you think we should have a common "serverless spec" to share between them? Or just let the devs implement in their desired way?

+1 for Lambdas in all supported languages.

I can take a stab at DD+Lambda NodeJS using serverless. Spun off repo.

Note: I can't fork the starter repo twice from my account, so I manually forked it (by cloning locally, and pushing to new remote). So it wont show up in the official starter kit's fork graph.

[EricSimons]

No sweat on the fork count for the starter kit, we only created it just so that getting started could (potentially) be as easy as one click :)

I'm going to create a separate issue for the Node DD+Lambda stack, and I'll put a checklist in this one for the remaining languages we'd like to support 👍

Hello we are currently moving all work in progress to Github Discussions.
I'll close this issue by now, you can find instruction to open a discussion there : #633

Thanks for your contribution !
