AWS Lambda Reviews & Product Details

AWS Lambda handles provisioning, scaling, patching, and even high availability for you. That removes a huge operational burden, especially for small teams or early-stage projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Debugging an issue is not easy, very complex Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to deploy, easy to connect and integrate with other AWS sources.

Can connect with Github and gitlab Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time of lambda timeouts is less. Can improve on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost-effective with on-demand requests-based billing to cut down costs of an EC2 instance which runs 24/7 and even no need for maintenance required. Able to easily handle a thousand concurrent requests and scales automatically based on incoming requests. Support for the most popular programming languages stands out from the competition. Integration with other AWS services was seamless and very helpful to build a end-to-end product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being stateless by design, the state cannot be maintained in most places makes it necessary to store the data either in other AWS services or any external storage. As it's a cloud-based function debugging is a bit more difficult and limited access to logs makes it more difficult. An execution timeout of 15 mins makes it hard for some long asynchronous file handling process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The first thing I like about AWS cloud is it's user friendly user interface and the documentation it offers for its users.

Being the largest cloud provider, it offers vast number of features that one can implement in their software development workflows.

The learning opportunities and contents that AWS offers is very much useful to cloud learners who begin with AWS as their first cloud platform.

Easy integration with multiple other platforms makes it easier for developers to work with in their software development process and day-to-day activities utilising AWS cloud.

Implementing a new workflow in AWS is much easier and simpler compared to the competitors.

The customer support AWS offers is really fantastic, including the basic support that it offers even with free of cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Given that AWS cloud has plenty of features, the cost of those features really comes at higher price compared to the other cloud providers such as Azure and GCP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the way it scales. Leaving developers to code and not worry about infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Could be hard to explain to a new onboardining engineer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Awesome service if you are looking for some quick quirks!! I would recommend highly if you are looking for running serverless applications which can also integrates with many AWS services like S3, DynamoDB, API gateway etc. The best thing about this service is automating things with ease and you pay only for the compute time you use.

Only disadvantage over this many advantages.. Need to perform some work around as the execution time is quite long (15 minutes). Debugging might be tricky some times as the logs are stored directly in CloudWatch and sometimes its quite difficult to debug. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its easy to setup with a small image and less code Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

its not very user friendly and kron job setting is a bit hard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its best part is, pay as you use. It charges only it is called for any API call Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It Cannot be used for multiple API call, it can incur more cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the best things about AWS Lambda is its seamless integration with various AWS services like S3, CloudWatch for logging, and email services. Whenever my lambda function is not able to work properly, I can simply go to clouwatch and see the logs and it help me to understand the problem. And one more thing is that it is easy to create AWS lambda function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS Lambda has predefined limits on memory allocation (almost 10Gb)which make it not suitable for heavy workloads.

It is mostly used for the smaller product which need a less memory allocation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No dependancy on servers to run your code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Too many processes execution makes the use of Lambda limited and have many memory constraints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
