When working with AWS services, you’ve got several choices to build and deploy your lambda functions: Serverless Framework, AWS Amplify Framework, and AWS SAM CLI are the three most popular toolkit today. Each of them has different pros and cons. The cons you will get just happens after your project sized to be a complex solution beyond their pre-designed, intended purpose. In this article, I want to introduce yet another choice for your work with less locked-in, highly customization, and ultimate control of your Infrastructure as Code solution.

What is Simplify-SDK? This is a JavaScript SDK that helps your DevOp integration easier by adding deployment steps inline to your project solution. You will never want to be locked into any vendor for a tool you use. In FaaS architecture, a function can be very small but a project needs some (3–100) functions to orchestrate a workload. One CI/CD tool for all of them is quite hard to deploy your project when you just need to manage a stand-alone function.
