What is Lambda?
Lambda is a computing service that allows you to run Python, Java, Node.js, Ruby, .NET, and Go code without provisioning and managing any server. In AWS, it is one of the most used services in the AWS stack. The only thing you need to do is develop and run your code. Lambda also has some advantages in terms of cost.
Lambda is a container that is created by AWS in order to execute your application. When you create a Lambda function, AWS creates this container for you. Hence, you don’t need to provision an instance and install the compiler in the container. The only responsibility is to run your code when selecting Lambda.
The advantages of Lambda
The advantages of Lambda are as follows:
- There’s no need to provision a server
- It is a pay-as-you-go model
- It supports different runtimes such as Python, Java, and C#
- There’s no need to install a software development kit, since it is ready to develop
- It has scalability features...
