AWS Lambda | Basic Definition

AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. With Lambda, you upload your code (in languages such as Python, Node.js, Java, Go, etc.) and specify triggers that will execute the function. AWS automatically manages the infrastructure for scaling, availability, and fault tolerances


AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that runs your code automatically in response to events. It allows you to focus on your business logic and let AWS handle the infrastructure. The key benefits include no server management, automatic scaling, cost-efficiency, and seamless integration with other AWS services. Lambda is like having a team that works only when needed, and you only pay them for the hours they actually work, making it an efficient solution for many use cases.
