Application Composer, a low-code tool from AWS for creating serverless apps, is released
AWS today unveiled AWS Application Composer, a new low-code tool for graphically planning and creating serverless applications, at its re:Invent conference. The service offers developers a visual canvas and a straightforward drag-and-drop interface to let them design their functions, link their resources, and build the architecture of their applications.
"Sometimes programmers use synchronous systems because they are more practical. They appear to be considerably simpler," said Werner Vogels, CTO of AWS. "In a synchronous system, all of these elements are present. It can occasionally seem a little intimidating how they function together in the event-driven. We have therefore been considering ways to make this simpler. For instance, how can you make it simpler for devs who have never used serverless? How are you supposed to even begin? What services are they in need of? How do they cooperate? We really wanted to simplify this."
