sam: Deploy an AWS SAM application.
$ sam deploy
try on your machine

The "sam deploy" command is used in AWS (Amazon Web Services) to deploy an AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) application.

AWS SAM is an open-source framework used to build serverless applications on AWS. It provides a simplified syntax for defining serverless resources like functions, APIs, and event sources. The "sam deploy" command allows you to package and deploy your SAM application to AWS.

When you run "sam deploy", it performs the following steps:

  1. Package: It packages your SAM application's code and dependencies into an AWS CloudFormation deployment package.
  2. Upload: It uploads the packaged CloudFormation template and code artifacts to an S3 bucket in your AWS account. The S3 bucket acts as a staging location for the deployment.
  3. Deploy: It deploys your SAM application using AWS CloudFormation. It creates or updates the necessary AWS resources specified in your SAM template, like AWS Lambda functions, Amazon API Gateway APIs, etc.

The "sam deploy" command requires you to have the AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) installed and configured on your machine with the necessary permissions to deploy resources in your AWS account.
