What is AWS Lambda?
AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service provided by Amazon Web Services. It runs pieces of code (called Lambda functions) in stateless containers that are brought up on demand to respond to events (such as HTTP requests). The containers are then turned off when the function has completed execution. Users are charged only for the time it takes to execute the function.
AWS Lambda (or Lambda for short) is a serverless computing service provided by AWS. In this chapter we are going to be using Lambda to build our serverless application. And while we don’t need to deal with the internals of how Lambda works, it’s important to have a general idea of how your functions will be executed. Lambda Specs Let’s start by quickly looking at the technical specifications of AWS Lambda. Lambda supports the following runtimes. Node.js 18.x, 16.x, and 14.x Java 17, 11 and 8 Python 3.11, 3.10, 3.9, 3.8, and 3.7 .NET 7 and 6 Go 1.x Ruby 3.2 and 2.7 Rust Info .NET Core 2.2 and 3
