AWS Lambda
Build serverless applications with AWS Lambda.
Create Function
bash
# Create function aws lambda create-function \ --function-name myfunction \ --runtime python3.11 \ --handler app.handler \ --role arn:aws:iam::xxx:role/lambda-role \ --zip-file fileb://function.zip # Update code aws lambda update-function-code \ --function-name myfunction \ --zip-file fileb://function.zip
Function Code
python
# app.py
import json
def handler(event, context):
return {
'statusCode': 200,
'body': json.dumps({'message': 'Hello!'})
}
API Gateway Integration
bash
# Create REST API aws apigateway create-rest-api --name myapi # Add Lambda permission aws lambda add-permission \ --function-name myfunction \ --statement-id apigateway \ --action lambda:InvokeFunction \ --principal apigateway.amazonaws.com
Environment & Configuration
bash
# Set environment variables
aws lambda update-function-configuration \
--function-name myfunction \
--environment "Variables={DB_HOST=xxx,API_KEY=yyy}"
# Set memory and timeout
aws lambda update-function-configuration \
--function-name myfunction \
--memory-size 256 \
--timeout 30
Best Practices
- •Minimize cold starts
- •Use layers for dependencies
- •Implement proper error handling
- •Use provisioned concurrency for latency-sensitive functions
- •Monitor with CloudWatch
