Build a Serverless File Processing Pipeline With AWS Step Functions

In this video, we’ll build a serverless file processing workflow with AWS Step Functions using Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, and SNS. You’ll learn how to automate tasks like file validation, data extraction, transformation, and database updates—all triggered automatically by file uploads. We’ll walk through creating the infrastructure using the AWS CDK, defining the Step Functions tasks, and handling both success and failure scenarios.
