Zero to Production Node.js on Amazon Web Services
This course will equip you with the knowledge needed to build, test, deploy, and scale Node.js web applications in production on Amazon Web Services.
What you'll learn
In this course, Zero to Production Node.js on Amazon Web Services, Kevin Whinnery guides you through the steps necessary to build, test, deploy, and scale Node.js web applications in production on Amazon Web Services. You’ll gain the skills you need to build a Node.js production environment that's productive in development and won't fail under a modest load. To accomplish this, you’ll walk through a sample project which uses a structure that's similar to what you might find in a production Node.js application, and which you can build on as a template for your own apps. You'll also explore several modules including Express, Sequelize, and Grunt, to help you understand the different pieces involved in application deployment.
