AWS Lambda Reviews & Product Details

AWS Lambda is easy to use and straightforward to implement. It also offers a lot of features and is easy to integrate with other services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lambda functions are stateless by design, so they require external services for state management. Also, if a function hasn’t been used for a long time, it may experience a cold start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about AWS Lambda is its serverless architecture, which removes the need to manage infrastructure. It lets me focus on writing and deploying code, without having to worry about provisioning, configuring, or maintaining servers.

Another big advantage is how smoothly it integrates with other AWS services such as S3, API Gateway, and CloudWatch. That integration makes it straightforward to build event-driven applications and automate workflows.

I also appreciate its scalability and cost efficiency. Lambda scales automatically based on demand and uses a pay-per-use model, so I’m only paying for the compute time I actually consume. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the biggest drawbacks of AWS Lambda is cold-start latency, especially for functions that aren’t invoked often. This can introduce small delays in response times, which may affect performance for real-time applications.

Another limitation is execution time and resource constraints. Lambda functions have a maximum runtime and restricted memory/CPU options, which can make them a poor fit for long-running tasks or resource-intensive workloads.

Debugging and monitoring can also be challenging. Although CloudWatch provides logs, tracing and troubleshooting issues across multiple Lambda functions and connected services can quickly become complicated, particularly in distributed architectures.

Finally, managing dependencies and deployment packages can be somewhat cumbersome, especially as applications grow larger. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lambda is serverless so there's no tension about compute and memory.

On demand pricing , means you pay as you go.

very minimal efforts to setup.

integration with python and other languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Timeout can be an issue sometime, not efficient for long running jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I don’t have to worry about servers at all. I just write my code, upload it, and AWS runs it for me whenever it’s needed. It scales automatically if 1 person uses my app or 10,000 persons Lambda handles it without me doing anything extra. Plus, I only pay when the code actually runs, so it’s often cheaper than keeping a server running all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there is a small delay the first time a function runs, which can be an issue for real-time apps. Also, you can’t control the underlying server or install custom system-level software Lambda works best when your code fits neatly into its model.

And debugging or monitoring can be trickier than a regular server, though tools like CloudWatch help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The serverless works perfectly with AWS. I use a lot of triggers, and they work perfectly with my code. You can focus on code and deployment without worrying about handling the rest of the code. My experience with payment has been good, with the run code of autopayment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you use it a lot,it need time to start again and repsonse times also become slower Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like AWS Lambda because it runs code without managing servers scales automatically and you only pay when it runs. It also works smoothly with others AWS services, making development faster and easier.implementation is easy.i have use lambda in my most of use case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The debugging and monitoring can be harder compared to traditional servers and limited execution time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very powerful tool with not a lot of limitations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's complexity to set up the first time.. a lot of documentation to filter/go through

Things change, so sometimes the documentation is dated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can write any function in that and can integrate any where along with it's arn. Also can integrate with Open AI and Azure foundry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, It's too easy to write also. I am using it from a long time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Code is completely free and I have trial it with not require upgrade, it can be start, everytime, I can try to upload code with ZIP and image, it like AI and it will be complete code.

AWS Lambda shines with its ability to run code without provisioning or managing servers, making deployment incredibly fast and efficient. It automatically scales based on demand, so you only pay for what you use—down to the millisecond. Plus, its seamless integration with other AWS services like S3, DynamoDB, and API Gateway makes building complex applications surprisingly smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS Lambda can become expensive at scale, especially when functions are invoked frequently or run for extended durations. The cost model—based on number of requests and execution time—can be hard to predict, making budgeting tricky for complex applications. Additionally, integrating Lambda with other AWS services may incur extra charges, increasing the overall product cost beyond just the function itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like using AWS Lambda for its cost-efficiency and ability to handle a big load, which saves money and improves performance when dealing with bulk, asynchronous tasks like image conversion. The pricing is great, and it offers a lot of servers, which is useful when running many tasks in parallel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really like their code editor and overall interface, it looks outdated. I use it mostly to quickly test changes without proper deploy, so it is not a big problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
