AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service that allows developers to run code without provisioning or managing servers. It automatically scales based on demand and only incurs costs for actual execution time, making it an efficient and cost-effective solution for event-driven workloads.

Lambda functions can be triggered by various AWS services, such as API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB, and EventBridge, enabling highly scalable and decoupled architectures. With support for multiple programming languages, including Node.js, Python, Go, and Java, AWS Lambda simplifies backend logic execution while ensuring high availability.
