This 4-chapter book covers essential patterns of deploying ML applications using the serverless.com framework. It covers common pitfalls and offers ready-to-use examples you can immediately apply to your own use cases. Throughout the book we will slowly build up the intuition behind different functionalities that the serverless.com framework offers and how to tweak it. This book is mostly recommended to users who know that serverless.com is a tool they would like to use, but lack the details how to efficiently put everything together. I hope you will enjoy these ready-to-use recipes!

The book will cover the following areas and concepts:

Initializing the project, first deployment and the serverless.com dashboard
Basic serverless yaml components
File syntax, references and special helper functions
Handling per-environment configuration through params and config files
Isolating function dependencies in multi-function deployments
Deploying large dependencies through Lambda layers
Working with custom Docker images
Deploying a ML model to AWS Lambda
Integration with services such as EventBridge and StepFunctions
Helpful serverless plugins

The bundle consists of a zipped file with the entire codebase with extensive notes and further references so that the readers could further deepen their knowledge. Bear in mind that the book already assumes that the user is already somewhat familiar with IaC tools and working in the cloud, and such details will not be extensively explained. It is also not a typical book, but rather a Power Point presentation converted to a PDF file, but don't worry - it will have all the knowledge you need!

Future versions of this book are planned and I've started working on them. They will mainly cover the following topics:

expanding on examples and integrations using Step Functions
using serverless.com to deploy and orchestrate AWS Batch jobs for ML model training and batch scoring
integration os serverless.com with databases for ML use-cases
