Overview

AWS Lambda has become a popular serverless computing service that allows developers to run code without provisioning or managing servers. When combined with NestJS, a progressive Node.js framework for building efficient, reliable, and scalable server-side applications, developers can efficiently create cloud-native applications. This combination leverages the simplicity of serverless architecture while taking advantage of NestJS's rich features.

Setting up AWS Lambda with NestJS provides an exciting avenue for developing applications that can scale seamlessly. Local installation allows for rapid development and testing, providing a great way to build and refine applications before deploying them to the AWS cloud environment.
