AWS Lambda Reviews & Product Details

What I like best about lambda is the serverless aspect of having a piece of code execute reliably using triggers. The most common triggers I use are scheduled, which makes scheduked jobs needing processing a piece of cake. The way that lambda communicates with cloudwatch makes it an easy way to debug any issues and monitor behavior as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't dislike much about the service, but often times I do find myself writing lambdas with many dependencies, making it hard to use the inline editor. But this is often overpassed by using a cloudformation template pointing to my local code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have worked on AWS lambda couple of months back and loved it. You just write the function and expose it as service, job or as an event. You write the simplest function and it can behave like an API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, one thing though, I wish it had more text editor functionality Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lambda is easy to utilise with well-known languages. Using common languages like Python makes serverless coding very easy to do. Within a few minutes it's possible to have an application up and running! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Figuring out the security between Lambda and other services can be tricky in some cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use. Supports various languages Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time limitation . Runs for very limited time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Five ways serverless helps your startup:

- No servers to manage

- Continuous scaling

- Managed infrastructure

- Pay per use

- Real reusability

- Faster development cycles

- 1 million requests per month is free Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Cold start (cold start is the time spent to do this task of Lambda initialization)

- Max 3GB RAM

- You can't use with socket Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i have been working with AWS Lambda for 1-2 years and it's very reliable and efficient tool for performing event driven server less computing , previously we have to face so many hurdles while developing cloud based application we need to take care about so many configuration before uploading our code to servers but by using AWS lambada you just need to write the code and upload it to the Lambada and rest of the things it'll do it by it self and thus it provides us a server less environment for developing cloud based applications easily rapidly for any kind of business requirements ! !

The quality of services is not up to the mark and pricing is little bit higher comparitevly!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS Lambda is very easy to work with and the tools for Visual Studio really make it easy to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The primary thing missing at this point is the ability to do live debugging via Visual Studio. The logs work pretty well but actual debugging support would be awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use within the console. I develop in dot net and the aws sdk for dot net is one of the best things I've used, being able to deploy your Lambda from within the Visual Studio IDE has saved so much time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no folder structure within the console, having the ability to folder Lambdas would make organising them easier and would tidy up the console display Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about AWS Lambda is the serverless platform. I've used serverless in conjuction with lambda to deploy several services, bots, and awesome tools which are used by my teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think I like Lambda a lot, I'm not sure if I dislike much beyond the interface, but AWS doesn't have good UIs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the flexibility to break large applications into small, manageable chunks. We also use Lambda for periodic, one-off or scheduled tasks. Great for jobs that don't require "always on" application code running on our EC2 fleet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's not much to dislike.. Deployment is easy, and integration with other AWS services is full featured. I suppose if I had to pick asomething to nitpick, I would say it would be nice to independently manage compute vs memory allocation to a Lambda function Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
