AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that allows you to run code in response to specific events without needing to provision or manage servers. With Lambda, you simply upload your code, and AWS automatically handles the execution, scaling, and infrastructure management. It is highly scalable and cost-efficient because you only pay for the compute time your code actually uses, down to the millisecond. AWS Lambda is ideal for building event-driven applications, automating backend processes, and enabling microservices architectures.
