Integrate your front end apps with serverless backend in the cloud

Designing, deploying and maintaining backend services for your mobile application is a challenge. Think about authentication, authorization, data access, notifications, offline devices and the usual non functional requirements of availability, scalability and … shrinking budgets !
During this session, I will show you how to deploy cloud based services, without requiring to be a cloud expert. I will show you how to easily integrate an authentication wall, with minimal coding, how to deploy an API layer and how to publish your web app without using a single server. By attending this session you will be able to accelerate the development of your web & mobile applications by using simplified backends in the cloud.
