AWS Lambda Overview

What is AWS Lambda?

AWS Lambda lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. You pay only for the compute time you consume - there is no charge when your code is not running. With Lambda, you can run code for virtually any type of application or backend service - all with zero administration. Just upload your code and Lambda takes care of everything required to run and scale your code with high availability. You can set up your code to automatically trigger from other AWS services or call it directly from any web or mobile app.

What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

It's simplicity of the console UI. It is very intuitive to navigate, and theit products are easy to configure on there directly. CLI and IaC tools can be used for repetative tasks, but the console is so easy to use for the quick-n-dirty things you need to get done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

The naming convention of the services. When AWS first got started it was OK, because while there was a lot of services out of the gate, they were managable. Now, however, it has grown to having so many services and the naming conventions for them are not intuative to what they do. As a result, when new things pop up you have no idea what they are until you have done some research because you can't quickly tell what the intent is based on the name of the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Too many things to count! AWS is fantastic for spinning up infrastructure and managed services quickly, and tear them down just as quick, allowing for rapid and agile testing and development. It also allows you to manage former "data center" activities with very small staff, and in cost efficient manors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used java as well as node js for writing lambdas, But the issue was that we couldn't see or modify the code in Lambda console if the language selected is java. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Lambda solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), and it addresses several common challenges associated with traditional server-based architectures.
