In this exercise, you will deploy the TravelBuddy website as a Single Page web Application (SPA) on S3. You will then implement a chatbot that registered users can use to have natural-language dialogue with your microservices in order to find information about flights using Amazon Lex.
Amazon Lex is a service for building conversational interfaces into any application using voice and text. Amazon Lex provides the advanced deep learning functionalities of automatic speech recognition (ASR) for converting speech to text, and natural language understanding (NLU) to recognize the intent of the text, to enable you to build applications with highly engaging user experiences and lifelike conversational interactions. With Amazon Lex, the same deep learning technologies that power Amazon Alexa are now available to any developer, enabling you to quickly and easily build sophisticated, natural language, conversational bots (“chatbots”).
