"Best serverless computing platform available in the market"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Being a developer AWS lambda is what you need to blindly deploy your code and have it immediately up and running without thinking about anything such as server configuration, scaling, etc. And the best part is this is event-driven, so you can run/execute it when you need it, which saves a lot of costs like server provisioning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

There is no such big downside as such for lambda. The only thing is if we can have the lambda timeout a bit more than 15 mins for long-running jobs. But anyways AWS already has a sloution for you that is aws batch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Administration activities now made easier!"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

One of the best features in AWS Lambda is that it allows us to automatically manage and compute resources which is primarily helpful in updating stalks. Tasks are automated with the ease of coding simple functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

The main point which i dislike in AWS Lambda is that, when we forget to terminate the instance, the code behind these functions will be running all the time and that makes up a huge bill! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best in load balancing and computation"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

Best about cloud is performance that we require on the backend, every request handled with proper infra so the response time also decreased and front end hosting is also good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

One thing that is I dislike is that sometime it stuck on the computation while giving request lambda function also at that particular time computation and cost of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AWS Lambda is a cost-saving and simple to use feature."
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Simple to use, Easy to learn, Cost-saving, Robust and quick processing, Fault-tolerant, Monitoring and metrics gathering is easy, auto-scaling and Low maintenance overheads, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

It may be tough to process processes which take more time and run out of memory as well. The Lambda might become cold if it didn't receive requests for a while, initial requests after that may take a while to process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Serverless Compute Technology"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

It's truly a serverless compute service offered by AWS, where i can really forget the unrelated operational aspects such as Patching & complicated deployments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

maybe cold starts which can definitely improved by right programming and some hard limits such as 15 mins timeout and 6MB request & response payload are something which leaves us out of this great service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AWS is a quite reliable cloud provider with great scalable solutions"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

I have used many AWS services, compute, storage, authentication, repository management, etc. all cloud services were good.

The documentation and the community are also well developed over the years, it's likely that if you're stuck somewhere it will be not difficult to find answers online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

In my opinion, the repository management tools are not at par with the competitors, especially Codepipeline.

You can only automate and build up to a point after that it does not scale well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Software Developer"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

It is fast, scalable and is the most important component in a microservices serverless architechture. I like how you just focus on your code or the functionality and leave the rest to AWS in terms of managing and provisioning infrastructure. There's huge cost savings as compared to using EC2 and on-prem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

When a certain lambda function is not invoked for a long time then you may experience lag in response to your function call. Cold starts can be a pain but if your service is pretty busy it shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
