Serverless Development with Kotlin, AWS Lambda, and MongoDB Atlas

As seen in a previous tutorial, creating a serverless function for AWS Lambda with Java and MongoDB isn’t too complicated of a task. In fact, you can get it done with around 35 lines of code!

However, maybe your stack doesn’t consist of Java, but instead Kotlin. What needs to be done to use Kotlin for AWS Lambda and MongoDB development? The good news is not much will be different!

In this tutorial, we’ll see how to create a simple AWS Lambda function. It will use Kotlin as the programming language and it will use the MongoDB Kotlin driver for interacting with MongoDB.
