"Best Serverless Solution out there"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Paying only for the server resources used is one of the main upsides of a serverless infrastructure, and AWS Lambda is a perfect example. Our team uses AWS Lambda to build web applications, saving us time and effort. We don't have to spin up EC2s whenever we need extra computing resources. Lambda provisions resource automatically based on the need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

As with every other AWS service, Lambda is no exception. You have to be somewhat knowledgeable to use Lambda. A new user will not be able to use it properly. He has to check the docs and navigate through the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
