Thanks for that callout, absolutely right. Fixed!

IN a direct reply to Op: There is definitely a lot that goes into learning serverless tech like AWS Lambda. I lead Developer Advocacy for Serverless at AWS and we're constantly loo…

It was a long day yesterday, thank you :)

Same as Lambda has before. The state you have is most likely short lived as we reap worker environments every so often, but in-between invokes you could persist some data in memory…

Awesome, thanks for sharing this.

::waves at Yuri:: Thanks! It's been a fun/interesting 4 years in this space :)

There's no impact of this feature to how you invoke your Lambda functions.

No good way to do this today. You are right in that you'd be forcing cold-starts. You could use a Lambda Extension to provide some sort of after-processing clean up of vars or /tmp…

Yes, but you deploy it from one region.

This is all based on how the RunTime API worked already (pre-dates this launch by 2 years or so). We wanted to not change too many bits. Since function code has no listening socket…

Thanks! Appreciate the feedback and hope this helps you out. Let us know if it doesn't :) - Chris

That is not at all what my words say and I won't reply to that thread which was started by a former competitor to troll this convo today. The perceived lock-in is really no differe…

There's a few things at play. Functions will still stay warm inbetween invocations and will keep local any data already in the worker. We also maintain a couple different levels of…

thar be dragons :)

Enough that in 2019 it was the most popular topic at re:Invent (our big user conference) and that today per our re:Invent announcement almost half of all new compute workloads in A…

The naming is a bit of a misnomer, today L@E doesn't run at the edge (in our PoPs) but when you deploy it copies to every region and then CloudFront routes you to the lowest latenc…

Yes, either those docs will ship today or sometime this week. They are doing everything in batches but I've seen the SAM support pre-launch (which would require it). - Chris

It me.

Interesting. Not possible today. We'd still encourage paralyzation up through multiple concurrency of functions being executed.

Yes, you are still limited to 15 minute maximum duration. - Chris Munns - Lead of Dev Advocacy - Serverless@AWS

Yes, to be clear this change was just for Lambda. L@E is honestly a completely different service run by a different part of AWS that just happens to share parts of our core worker …

Thats me. We've got some fun things we do behind the scenes to keep Lambda container image support snappy. SO yes, up to 10gb artifacts with container image support.
