+# Account Created Function
+
+Node.js source code and deployment scripts for an _AWS Lambda_ function. This function is referenced in an [_Event Stream Processing Microservices_](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/tree/master) example project as a git sub-module.
+
+The lambda function is triggered from events sourced from the [account-worker](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/tree/master/account-parent) application. The lambda function uses an _Amazon API Gateway_ trigger that is invoked from a _Spring Cloud Stream_ application.
+
+**Function Details**:
+
+This lambda function responds to an [AccountEvent](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/blob/master/account-parent/account-web/src/main/java/demo/event/AccountEvent.java) that applies a state change to an [Account](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/blob/master/account-parent/account-web/src/main/java/demo/account/Account.java) resource.
+
+- **context**: [accounts](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/tree/master/account-parent)
+- **function**: account-created
+- **source_state**: `ACCOUNT_CREATED`
+- **target_state**: `ACCOUNT_PENDING`
+- **event_type**: `ACCOUNT_CREATED`
+- **event_format**: [application/hal+json](http://stateless.co/hal_specification.html)
+
+**Description**:
+
+This event handler is triggered in response to an _Account_ resource transitioning from an `ACCOUNT_CREATED` status to an `ACCOUNT_PENDING` status. The function should apply the `ACCOUNT_PENDING` status to the _Account_ API resource that is linked within the payload of the supplied _AccountEvent_ resource.
+
+This AWS lambda function is a backing service to the [account-worker](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/tree/master/account-parent/account-worker) application. A service binding should inject the _AWS Lambda_ resource address and credentials into the _account-worker_ container as environment variables.
+
+![Account microservice](http://i.imgur.com/WZTR4lQ.png)
+
+The lambda function uses a Node.js module named [Traverson](https://github.com/basti1302/traverson), which is a REST client implementation for [HATEOAS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HATEOAS). The reference architecture uses [Spring HATEOAS](http://projects.spring.io/spring-hateoas/) to describe REST API resources with embedded links. The links embedded in each API resource allows the code in the lambda function to be completely stateless.
+
+The lambda function only needs to import the _Traverson_ dependency to interact with API resources managed by the [account-web](https://github.com/kbastani/event-stream-processing-microservices/tree/master/account-parent/account-web) microservice.
+
+```javascript
+// Lambda Function Handler (Node.js)
+exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {
+  // Loads the traverson client module
+  var traverson = require('traverson');
+
+  // Apply the confirm command to the Account resource
+  traverson
+    .from(event._links.account.href)
+    .follow('$._links.self.href',
+      '$._links.commands.href',
+      '$._links.confirm.href')
+    .get(function(error, response) {
+      // Return the account result
+      callback(error, response);
+    });
+};
+```
+
+## Deployment
+
+A shell script is provided in `./deploy.sh`. This script uses the AWS CLI to create a deployment package using an [AWS CloudFormation Template](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-templates/) defined in `./account-created.yaml`. To deploy the lambda function, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured to an IAM user with sufficient permissions to execute the script.
+
+The script will create a deployment package for the lambda function and upload it as a zip file to an S3 bucket. The bucket name is an argument to the the deployment script.
