Review Summary

Generated using AI from real user reviews
Users consistently praise AWS Lambda for its serverless simplicity and automatic scaling, which allows them to focus on writing code without managing infrastructure. The seamless integration with other AWS services enhances development speed and efficiency, making it ideal for event-driven applications. However, many note the 15-minute execution limit and cold start latency as common limitations.

"Lambda is simple, cost effective and powerful."
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Lambda was beyond simple to setup. Using it in conjunction with AWS API Gateway and RDS services is actually simple to setup and leaves endless possibilities. Lambda connects directly with the Gateway allowing for quick connection between the two services and Lambda handles the rest from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

The management interface can be a little quirky from time to time, however it's nothing that is not easily handled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for serverless computing"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

The interactive editing of deployed code, though it's limited, it's good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

Libraries are also involved in interactive editing. It'll be good if there is global management for libraries. Say for nodejs, we use lot of libraries which makes package size more and can't be used for inline editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple and powerful"
What do you like best about AWS Lambda?

Love integrating this with API Gateway - makes an API-based solution super quick to develop. Integrated AWS IAM security makes security simple and powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Lambda?

Would like to see more integration with development toolkits. Using the Web-UI is clunky. I think dev toolkits exist, but am not aware of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
