I have been working on Lambda for some projects, and recently, I had to design and write an FAS service using Lambda functions and read/write data into RDS (MySQL). I'm sharing what I've learned here.
AWS Lambda With MySQL (RDS) and API Gateway
Run AWS Lambda Functions Locally on a Windows Machine
I was playing with AWS Lambda recently and found it pretty exciting. It's also cheap as serverless applications don’t require provisioning, maintaining, and administering servers, and AWS, in particular, is simple, easy-to-learn, and powerful. AWS Lambda supports Java, Go, PowerShell, Node.js, C#, Python, and Ruby languages. The biggest problem with using Lambda is that it does not allow inline editing for Java. In Java, you need to write the code in an editor and build a .jar or .zip deploy on the console.
