Pros Alta scalabilità, facile integrazione con praticamente tutti gli altri componenti AWS, numero di linguaggi di programmazione supportati e basso costo Cons forse l'unico aspetto negativo è il limite di lambda che possono essere attive allo stesso momento, pari a 1000 Reason for choosing AWS Lambda basso costo Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Perfect when in AWS ecosystem" September 25, 2021 5.0 Pros Really easy to integrate and adapt to user needs Cons The documentation was a bit hard to navigate Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best Option to Run Serverless" October 6, 2020 5.0 AWS Lambda is the best way to run serverless code in AWS. It is a simple interface to learn and works well with step functions Pros \- Easy to test code - Simple to set up environment variables - Able to write code in many different languages Cons \- Testing was a little difficult to figure out at first - If you want to rename your function, you need to delete it and create a new one Review Source CC Chetna C. Software Intern Research Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Ideal choice for serverless development" April 6, 2021 4.0 we develop our entire services around AWS Lambda and would highly recommend for serverless development Pros AWS lambda works completely well with the development of microservices in a serverless architecture. It integrates with a lot of AWS services and has lot of support/tutorials available online. It works with muliple languages and is very inexpensive. Has good support for cdk/cft developments Cons The Cold start issue. I know there are ways to overcome cold start but in my opinion this issue still exists and we struggle to have a workaround to fix it Review Source Wasi K. Sr. Software Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Workspace" June 5, 2022 5.0 Pros The best thing I like about this software is that it is the very good storage capacity Cons The worst thing I hate about this software is that it is requires great connection and slow for Developers Review Source ND Natalia D. Customer Care Assistant Farming Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excelente" March 12, 2023 5.0 Pros Fácil comprensión de las opciones en la App y la utilidad para otros procesos. Cons Incidencias puntuales, las cuales se han resuelto en un periodo breve y satisfactoriamente. Review Source JS Justin S. DevOps Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple, effective, and a paradigm changer in computing tasks" May 10, 2021 5.0 Lambda is helping to simplify computing in a similar manner to how OCI containers (I.E. Docker) were a significant improvement over virtual machines for certain applications. Pros It's far, far simpler to use AWS Lambda to handle repetitive tasks than setting up a bunch of servers to run scripts. If the servers go down, so do your scripts; with Lambda, you've got a limitless fleet ready to go at any time. There are a variety of included language runtime environments, and AWS hasn't been resting on its laurels - now, you can even run Docker containers in Lambda, too! Pricing is exceptionally low for the sort of functionality you get. Cons Lambda is easy to use once you've gotten your head around the basics, but getting there can be a slight time investment - similar to the mental shift you have to make when going from VMs to containers. But some learning curve is inevitable. Review Source AG Andrew G. Chief Digital Officer Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best low-code no-code platform within Cloud" June 30, 2022 5.0 Pros Super easy to integrate across Amazon / AWS suite of services and other integration points. Best in class documentation Cons Some limitations from initial platform deployment but AWS is adding more features every week Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Cloud Business Ops Analyst Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Lambda: Management free serverless code engine " May 12, 2021 5.0 Great service to run your code without worrying about underlying infra, cheaper than other means and easy to manage and maintain. Pros No hardware management/Serverless No performance impact/reduction Pay-as-you-run model Cons Availability of ready-skeleton for commonly used functions Review Source EQ Edwin Q. BI Lead Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Cost effective service" July 23, 2021 5.0 Pros This feature is very cost because it pay what you use. It also supports most latest technology like Python and Scala. Cons Maybe the user interface can be improve to be more user friendly Review Source PC Paolo C. software engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A powerful tool to horizontally scale processing" August 19, 2021 5.0 Pros I am using Lambda to horizontally scale some large processing we have. It is very convenient and I am using it as an alternative to run massive parallel processing on large EC2 instances Cons There are a few limits (ie lambda doesn't let to have a process run more than 15 min) however in my case they didn't impact Review Source SM Swetha M. Senior engineer Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Helps in solving integration and pipeline issues" November 24, 2022 5.0 AWS lamda is a sever less service used in mid range organizations Pros It's can integrate with any of the AWS services and helps in building pipelines. It's a service less platform helps users to run code with out managing servers. Cons Issues while importing libraries and to implement task that take longer to run. Review Source RK Rahul K. Software Developer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Serverless compute" July 16, 2021 5.0 It is a great software in the era of cloud computing. Moreover, it gives the developer, the freedom to choose any language they are comfortable with to be used in the lambda functions. Pros Amazon web service's serverless compute platform is great for cloud services that don't require a full-time server active. It is a very cost-efficient solution for many backend use cases. You only pay when there are calls answered by the system, unlike a traditional elastic compute platform which will charge you for the time your server is active. Cons A cloud practitioner or a software engineer is required to set up and even monitor the platform. Which is expected from any cloud service. But a simpler platform to set up and use a lambda function will be something I will look forward to. Review Source AJ Angeline J. Technical Test Lead Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best Serverless function" March 14, 2022 5.0 Pros Ease of integration with other cloud offerings and precise triggering in terms of event-based actions Cons Initial deployment process and the cold start that is experienced in resuming activities especially when the function had been inactive for a long time Review Source Nitin G. junior dev Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Serverless- Yes | EasyToUse-No" November 10, 2020 4.0 It needs maintenance, though provides a lot of features. Pros The supported languages list is quite good comprising Java, Node, Python, etc. Can be linked to other services on an ad-hoc basis.The dashboard is also useful where rates and executions are drawn. Cons It's not that easy to use like other AWS services and has its own dependencies which are not required for instance changing the name of the function we need to omit the previous one and launch a new one. Review Source AA Adeel A. developer Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Was easy to setup a lambda function in node.js" July 17, 2022 5.0 Pros Was fairly easy to create a function and deploy it in node js. Quick startup time Cons Cost could have been simpler to find out, wasn't clear on the pricing page Alternatives considered [Microsoft Azure](https://www.capterra.com/p/16365/Azure/) Review Source KC Kuldeep C. Software Intern Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good for small running jobs" February 10, 2022 4.0 Pros Very easy to implement.

Can recommend others to try this awesome feature. Pros We can save cost by using AWS Lambda since we only have to pay for consumed resources. Also we don't have to worry about configuring servers. Cons Its was bit hard to learn first but after that easy to use. Review Source VC Vincent C. Lead Software Engineer Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Fantastic technology at a good price" April 1, 2021 5.0 AWS Lambda has given us a quick way to deploy and test APIs at a relatively low cost. Pros My team and I converted a few of our APIs to be a lambda instead and it's resulted in great cost savings with an easier to maintain infrastructure. Cons Documentation was lacking, so it was hard to set it up without external documentation. Review Source IK Irina K. software engineer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Serverless is great!" November 21, 2023 5.0 Pros I like the developer interface and the fact that there are no servers to upkeep. Cons If you need high speed execution, there might be limitations.
