What is AWS Lambda?
AWS Lambda is a fully managed serverless compute service that allows you to execute your code in response to various events, such as changes to data in an Amazon S3 bucket or a new item being added to a DynamoDB table. It automatically manages the underlying compute resources for you, so you don’t need to worry about provisioning or maintaining any servers. This enables you to focus on writing and deploying your code, without any administrative overhead.
Some common use cases for AWS Lambda include the following:
- Running backend logic for web and mobile applications
- Processing data streams and event triggers
- Automating maintenance and administration tasks
In Lambda, you write your code and then upload it to the service. When an event occurs that triggers your code, Lambda executes it and automatically scales the underlying infrastructure to run your code. You only pay for the compute time that you consume, so you can run your code...
