Serverless applications are applications composed of functions triggered by events. A typical serverless application consists of one or more AWS Lambda functions triggered by events such as object uploads to [Amazon S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3), [Amazon SNS](https://aws.amazon.com/sns) notifications, and API actions. Those functions can stand alone or leverage other resources such as [Amazon DynamoDB](https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb) tables or S3 buckets. The most basic serverless application is simply a function.
