What is AWS Lambda?

AWS Lambda is a cloud-based software that enables users to run code in response to events without provisioning or managing servers. The software automatically manages compute resources and implements triggers based on events such as HTTP requests or file uploads. AWS Lambda supports multiple programming languages, including Python, Node.js, and Java, and integrates with various AWS services to automate workflows and build serverless applications. The software scales automatically based on demand, charges only for compute time consumed, and offers monitoring and logging through AWS CloudWatch. The primary business problem addressed by AWS Lambda is reducing infrastructure management overhead while allowing organizations to focus on application logic and event-driven processes.

    AWS Lambda Simplifies Backend Automation With Minimal Maintenance but Cold Starts Occur

    5.0
    Jul 16, 2025
    I’ve used AWS Lambda primarily for triggering API workflows and hosting small scheduled jobs. It’s been very convenient to run code without worrying about server management. The quick setup, event-driven execution, and built-in support for scheduling through CloudWatch made it easy to automate tasks. I especially liked the flexibility to scale automatically based on demand. One minor limitation I noticed was dealing with cold starts during infrequent invocations, but it wasn’t a major issue for my use case. Overall, Lambda helped me simplify backend workflows and reduce maintenance efforts
