"Seamless Experience When Deploying"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

AWS lambda is a service in where we can test codes and deploy them as a functions to execute them in our day to day automated tasks. It also provides flexibility to writes codes into yaml and json format. It also saves cost while deploying the automated tasks through lambda functions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

Well there is a pros into lambda similarly there are cons as well. Sometimes it's not well optimised enough through which the code which has been deployed take much more amount of time which disabled the lack of optimisation of the production task. Also, we have to maintain all the codes which are deployed as a function manually which is not suggested by trust advisory. Hence, the lambda function is useful while using the automated tasks which takes short time but while executing for long time taken tasks, i will go with AWS Cloud formation over it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"serverless cost saving computing solution."
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service which means we don't have to configure server in order to run it, being a front end developer i use lambda to add small functionalities and have created around 5 Lambda functions for my application, It is quite easy to implement and highly cost efficient as we only have to pay for the compute time, thoughout our application we are using it for multiple purpose like uploading images to s3, pushing toast messages for application update and adding sms otp services for authentication. It can easily be integrated with SNS to add push notification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

Though it has many advantages as compare to other computing servies like ec2 as it's serverless and cost saving but before implementing it, we should always consider factors like its compute duration and it's frequency of use as AWS charges for the compute time only, So high frequency use can increase the bill meaning it's important to consider usecase before implementing it using lambda.

AWS Lambda's serverless architecture is a game-changer,eliminating the hassle of server management while seamlessly scaling with demand. Its broad language support,integration caoability and pay-per-use pricing make it an efficient and cost-effective solution for modern application development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

One downback of AWS Lambda is the potential for starts, causing latency in function execution.Monitoring and debugging can also be more challenging,and the pay-per-use pricing model may lead to unpredictable costs as applications scala. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Aws lambda functions using node version 20.0"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Easy integration with the SAM template and thus you can update your code install packages and run tests on your local environment. Can have different memory usage, timeout for different lambda's, and separate permissions to other AWS resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

On the AWS console, you cannot install packages easily to a lambda function, and thus you have to create a sample lambda on locally and then zip it and upload it to AWS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
