In this lab, you’ll create an online application microservice for an event ticket company. New tickets sales are processed by this microservice, which has an API Gateway as the entry point. An Amazon SQS queue temporarily stores incoming messages and a containers auto-scale group retrieves and processes the messages. Each message processed creates a PDF document ticket and uses an Amazon S3 bucket to persistently store the documents. Finally, the message information is stored in an Amazon DynamoDB table along with the ticket object S3 URL.
