Chapter 3, Building a Flask Application with Zappa

Amazon API Gateway is a service to connect with other AWS services. API Gateway provides a RESTful application interface for mobile and web applications to connect with other AWS services. In our case, Zappa configured the API Gateway interface with proxy requests to invoke AWS Lambda.
Zappa performs the deployment operation based on the zappa_settings.json file configuration. Zappa uses the function_name to point the Flask application object in order to configure the application on AWS Lambda and API Gateway.
