🛠️ Lab 8 — AI Customer Feedback Hub 🏆 CAPSTONE

Type: Build-on-your-own — THE CAPSTONE Time: ~3-5 hours (across the week) Difficulty: Intermediate / Advanced Cost: Free at bootcamp scale. Even keeping it running 24/7 is ~$0 for low traffic.

🎯 What you’ll build

This is the portfolio piece. Build a complete production AI app: a customer feedback form (S3) → API Gateway → Lambda → Comprehend → DynamoDB → admin dashboard (S3). Six AWS services chained together. You’ll show this on your LinkedIn, your CV, your GitHub.

📋 Prerequisites

  • All previous labs complete
  • Comfortable with Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB
  • Time blocked: this needs proper focus, not 10-minute chunks

🛠️ AWS Services used

  • S3 (× 2) — frontend form + dashboard
  • API Gateway — HTTP endpoint for form submissions
  • Lambda (× 2) — process feedback + return dashboard stats
  • Comprehend — sentiment + entities
  • DynamoDB — feedback storage
  • IAM — role-based permissions
  • CloudFront (optional bonus) — CDN + HTTPS
