Manage Step Functions, API Gateway, Lambda through GIT and deploy

Question

I am new to writing serverless applications using Step Functions, Lambda, API Gateway.

I have been logging in to AWS console and uploading code manually.

Is there a way for us to manage the code through GIT and Deploy? When I have used EC2, I have always installed SFTP to deploy the code.

Also, I need 3 environments - development, QA and production. What would be the best way of configuring API gateway, Lambda and Step functions to have these 3 separate environments?

Answer 1

You should use CloudFormation and CodePipeline, and possibly CodeBuild. CloudFormation will allow you to create a repeatable template that is used to deploy your resources. CodePipeline is good for managing stages of a deployment (your dev/QA/prod).
