Example of using a graphql server on aws lambda with a postgresql DB

Introduction

This is a sample graphql api base on https://github.com/serverless/serverless-graphql to create the back end of the twitter api using:

• Graphql -- Apollo-server. Specifically the package apollo-server-lambda
• Aws Lambda & AWS API Gateway
• AWS RDS (MYSQL)

Not using AWS AppSync in order to have the posibility to have a local instance of all.

#Improvments I would like to integrate graphql-yoga instead of apollo-serve
