Configure Cloud
...
Account
To connect with AWS Lambda Function, we required to configure Cloud account, with credentials details. Configure AWS Cloud Account under Integration. FlexDeploy will connect to the Lambda Function and add the environment variables.
...
To create or update the Lambda Alias we can use the upsertLambdaAlias operation available in the AWS plugin, please refer to the tutorial document for more information.
Create AWS S3
...
Bucket
Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) is an object storage service offering industry-leading scalability, data availability, security, and performance. Customers of all sizes and industries can store and protect any amount of data for virtually any use case, such as data lakes, cloud-native applications, and mobile apps. With cost-effective storage classes and easy-to-use management features, you can optimize costs, organize data, and configure fine-tuned access controls to meet specific business, organizational, and compliance requirements.Please refer to the link for more information https://aws.amazon.com/s3/
...
We have enabled the object versioning, we can see the details about different versions.

Git
...
Repository Structure
The Git repository contains the Environment file. The Sample Git repository structure is given below.
...
Pre-requisite
Configure IAM
...
User
To access the Lambda Function we need to create an AWS IAM account with required permissions. To create the AWS IAM user navigate to the AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) service page, and click on the Add users option. Next assign the required permission to access the Lambda Function. Once user is created, AWS secret key can be generated, this key we have to configure in Cloud account.
For more information about IAM user please ref. IAM users - AWS Identity and Access Management
...
CLI
...
Installation
AWS CLI should be installed in the m/c where the plugin is to be executed. Preferably add AWS CLI path in m/c classpath.
...
Configure the Build and Deploy workflow that has been created in previous steps as shown below.
...
Source Control
Configure the Source SCM repository under Source Control as shown below.
...
AWS CLI path can be set as environment property, if it’s not set then by default plugin will check for CLI in system classpath.
...
Override Properties at Project
...
Level
Let assume a scenario, where we want to change Cloud account for any specific project. Apart from setting at environment level, it can also be set at project properties by using Override Property. Please check below mentioned steps.
...
We have one Alias name as Prod and which is currently pointing to the function version 18 20 ( Blue deployment ), and 100% traffic is shift to this function version.
...
Once the deploy execution completed we can see that new function version is published and 20% of traffic will shift to this newly published version 21 ( Green deployment ) and remaining 80% will shift to old, stable version 20 . ( Blue deployment ).
...

Verify Blue/Green Deployment
Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. APIs act as the "front door" for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from our backend services. Using API Gateway, we can create RESTful APIs and WebSocket. We can create a web API with an HTTP endpoint for our Lambda function by using Amazon API Gateway. API Gateway provides tools for creating and documenting web APIs that route HTTP requests to Lambda functions. Resources in our API define one or more methods, such as GET or POST. Methods have an integration that routes requests to a Lambda function or another integration type. We are going to use Prod Alias to configure with API Gateway.
...
Now we create the method and deploy it.
...
We can use the Invoke URL to verify the deployment.
...
Using the same API URL we are getting the response generated from two different , Lambda function version using the Alias.
