Workshops for learning Step Functions

Workshop: The Step Functions Workshop

In this workshop, you will learn to use the primary features of Step Functions while building workflows. A series of interactive modules start by introducing you to basic workflows, task states, and error handling. You can continue to learn choice states for branch logic, map states for processing arrays, and parallel states for running multiple branches in parallel.

Workshop: Large-scale Data Processing with Step Functions

Learn how serverless technologies such as Step Functions and Lambda can simplify management and scaling, offload undifferentiated tasks, and address the challenges of large-scale distributed data processing. Along the way, you will work with distributed map for high concurrency processing. The workshop also presents best practices for optimizing your workflows, and practical use cases for claims processing, vulnerability scanning, and Monte Carlo simulation.
