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 Lambda?

AWS lambda takes care of server management, scaling and de-scaling users need to worry about the infrastructure when using lambda. AWS lambda automatically scales your applications based on the incoming request volume. Lambda follows event-driven model, (lambda can be triggered by various events within AWS ecosystem like changes in S3, changes in DynamoDb records etc). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

Cold start latency is the major issue in AWS Lambda. When the lambda function is invoked for the first time after a period of inactivity, lambda may experience cold start. This latency impacts response time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With AWS lambda, developers no longer need to manage servers or worry about provisioning, scaling or monitoring infrastructure. This allows them to focus more on writing code and delivering business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

If you are currently performing different operation manually and you want to perform such repetative operation automatically, so with the combination of lambda, Eventbridge and SNS service you can achieve this. You can basically deploy a code using lambda which will perform particular operation when triggered or run. This will help you to perform reparative operation on particular schedule like start and stop of on demand Ec2 instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

If we go toward cons, there is one problem only that if you want to add complex code you must have to have some knowledge of python boto3. Otherwise there are fix code structure that you can get through internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Basically It help me to perform repetative task automatically on daily basis, I just create a code for starting and stoping of an EC2 instances which we required to perform on daily basis. We schedule this whole process using combination of Lambda, AWS Eventbridge and SNS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

I've been a cloud engineer for a year and continue working on AWS as my cloud service provider. One of the best things that I like about AWS is:

1: its easy-to-use UI and one of the best features is its services; AWS provides almost every product and software engineering service.

2:one thing I would like to highlight at the end is its cost is significantly less as compared to other service providers.

3: AWS has more compliance certifications and security-related services than others.

4:AWS has rich documentation and support, making it easy for users to get started and troubleshoot any issues. AWS offers a range of support plans, including 24/7 support for critical issues of its users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

1:AWS offers per-hour billing, and the data transmission format is generally encrypted in the case of its competitor; I sometimes feel insecure.

2:One more thing I dislike about AWS takes 15-20 mins to spin up a simple website.

3:AWS is a proprietary platform; once an application is built on AWS, it can be challenging to migrate to another cloud platform, which may limit users' flexibility and increase costs in the long run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

AWS solving the problem of Infrastructure on demand , initially we need to buy huge servers now we don't need to buy any physical servers we can just simply scale depending on our needs , now in times of sales one of my clients they use AWS now sales season very high crowd visits their website and after-sales period sales drop to normal rate so they can't predict the number of customers and they cant buy large physical server without knowing the numbers ,so here AWS helped us to scale in and out depending on their need.

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

I'm been using lambda for creating web APIs mostly, Initlalyg I use EC2 service from AWS, it's take so long to start and then login with credentials, lot's of things to do, but here in Lambda, it's pretty simple to use, within a second I can create and deploy my code and also best part I can update my code form lambda console.
