AWS Lambda Reviews

We have a DNS as a service and NAS as a service, which integrates, and we use Lambda functions there. We have a lot of applications that we use Lambda for. 

This solution is cloud-based. 

Some of the most valuable features are that it's easy to install and use. The performance is also good. 

Lambda could be improved in the sense that some of the things done with Lambda function take some time. So the performance could be better and faster. 

I have been using Lambda for many years. 

This solution is stable. 

This solution is scalable. 

I think, eventually, we will increase our usage. We need to move some of our services to Lambda. 

Amazon's technical support is good. 

Before implementing Lambda, we had legacy types of solutions. 

The installation could be faster, but I believe it's a straightforward process. I manage a team that handles the installation, so I can't comment on the specifics of the installation process. Within the team that handles maintenance and deployment, we have two engineers. 

We implemented this solution through an in-house team. 

We don't need to pay for licensing to use Lambda. 

I rate AWS Lambda an eight out of ten. I would recommend AWS Lambda to others. We provide a lot of services, part of which is that we write Lambda functions. 

My primary use case for this solution is usually for event-driven architecture. Since it's AWS, it's cloud-based. 

I have found all of the features valuable. It's an easy and cheap solution. 

AWS Lambda could be improved by increasing the size of the payload. Also, sometimes Lambda doesn't implement well for bigger solutions. 

I have been using this solution for three years. 

This solution is stable. 

I would rate customer support a nine out of ten. I have made three or four service requests and those were all resolved within 24 hours. 

I didn't use a different solution before implementing Lambda. 

The installation is straightforward. There isn't really anything you need to do. If you know exactly what you want, it can be done in five minutes. 

I implemented this solution myself. 

I pay for a monthly license. The licensing options will depend on the users. There's a monthly option and a yearly option. 

Lambda is a good and cheap solution and I would recommend it to those without a huge payload. There are around twenty or thirty people using Lambda in my organization. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We have used Lambda for

batch processing for specific schedules.

different bot functions that run regularly,

Application business logic

Easy to impliment without any environment provisioning

 The initial setup is straightforward. 

The stability is good.

It has good monitoring. the visibility is great.

From a very high-level perspective, it is a good solution, however, there are certain limitations. This becomes challenging for us. Specifically, a limitation is Lambda cannot continuously execute for more than 15 minutes. That could be one limitation. On an implementation level, there are certain limitations that I know about yet would not be the best person to explain as I am not technical.

The execution timeout can be increased so that if we have a lengthy process, it will not fail before their timeouts. We've had to revamp the way that it works due to that 15-minute timeout limitation.

We've been using over 2 years

It's very stable, and it's easy to monitor. They have all the required logs and dashboards available on AWS to see the progress. The visibility of it also is good when a Lambda runs and completes.

I would not say it's scalable in terms of usage. As the demands increase it is scalable. But if the lambda need more time to process it's not scalable beyond 15 mts.

I've never dealt with technical support. I can't comment on their services. 

Positive

It seems to be a straightforward process. However, I'm not directly totally involved with the Lambda implementation.

We are implementors and can set up the solution for clients. 

The ROI is very good. It's a positive thing as there's no investment at all. It's purely on usage you have to pay. There's no upfront investment required, and it's only on the requirement that you have to choose Lambda. With the cost not being very big, the ROI is very good.

The cost is based on the number of Lambdas used if I'm not mistaken. It's only a usage charge, not a license charge.

We are an extensively using

I'd recommend the solution to other users and organizations. 

With time-out limitation, it's not a perfect fit for the batch process which takes more than 10 min.

Lambda can be used for automating AWS resources. 

It can also be used for automation outside of the cloud and for serverless applications. With Lambda, you can apply the code directly. 

The stability of the solution is very good, as is the performance.

It's a brilliant Amazon service that provides for many use cases. It's quite flexible.

The product has been very easy to use. All you have to do is configure a Lambda function and then deploy your code directly there and then you can invoke it in different ways. 

It is easy to configure.

The initial setup is very straightforward. 

Technical support has been great in general.

It would be ideal if we could use the solution across different platforms.

The integration could be better.

I've been using the solution for three years at this point. 

The solution is stable and the performance is great. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

We have multiple applications. Most of our applications are Lambda-based, I would say there are around a hundred at this point.

The technical support on offer is brilliant. There shouldn't be any concern with contacting them. they are helpful and responsive. We are satisfied with the level of service on offer from them.

We have found that the solution is easy to install. You just have to do it through the UI and you can easily configure it and deploy it directly.

For deployment, et cetera, we just need one cloud ops engineer per day.

I was able to handle the implementation myself. I did not need the assistance of any consultants or integrators. Individual users should be okay if they want to install it themselves. 

We don't need to worry about monthly or yearly licenses. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I've been very pleased with its capabilities in general.

I would recommend the solution to other users and companies. 

AWS Lambda is used for the whole surface, it does the backups, and schedules, and learns some of the core functionalities but it can depend on the topic or application. The solution is used to build APIs and many other functions 

AWS Lambda has some size limitations in the code line, you can't do a couple of functions to do the job.

I have been using AWS Lambda for approximately six years.

AWS Lambda is stable.

AWS Lambda is in the cloud which makes it scalable.

I have worked in many companies that have used this solution and some of them had a lot of users.

The support from AWS Lambda is very good, they are responsive.

I rate AWS Lambda a nine out of ten.

We use this solution for a mobile banking application with the ability to scale as per demand and to focus on core business functions rather than the platform.

This solution has improved our ability to scale as per demand and to focus on core business functions rather than the platform.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the API Gateway.

The security needs to be improved.

We had to deploy some serverless Node.js applications.

The solution works for small applications. It is a serverless tool that is quick to spin up. We needn’t consider anything in the bag.

I want to see support for longer applications. I need the 15-minute time-out window to improve.

I have been using the solution for about two to three years.

The tool is stable and you can rely on it for production service.

I think there were no issues with the size of the application we used, so I didn't see any noticeable scaling issues with Lambda. It's overall a good service.

The tech support is always good but it depends on the type of plan. We use the enterprise support plan which offers quick responses.

Positive

The initial setup was straightforward.

I would rate the tool’s pricing a nine out of ten. The solution’s pricing works on a pay-as-you-go basis.

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We have two or three applications that are hosted with Lambda. Being on cloud, the solution has its own advantages with good management of resources. You can spin up anything instantly without any investment and disaster recovery or HA is taken care of by the service itself. 

I believe Lambda security needs to be improved.  

I've been using this solution for one year. 

The solution is stable. 

I'm satisfied with the technical support, they respond quickly. 

The initial setup was straightforward and we currently have four engineers working on the product. 

Licensing is on a monthly subscription model and is usage-based. 

I rate the solution nine out of 10.
