Overview

Product Information on AWS Lambda

Updated 13th October 2025

What is AWS Lambda?

AWS Lambda is a cloud-based software that enables users to run code in response to events without provisioning or managing servers. The software automatically manages compute resources and implements triggers based on events such as HTTP requests or file uploads. AWS Lambda supports multiple programming languages, including Python, Node.js, and Java, and integrates with various AWS services to automate workflows and build serverless applications. The software scales automatically based on demand, charges only for compute time consumed, and offers monitoring and logging through AWS CloudWatch. The primary business problem addressed by AWS Lambda is reducing infrastructure management overhead while allowing organizations to focus on application logic and event-driven processes.

AWS Lambda Pricing

AWS Lambda software follows a pay-as-you-go pricing model, charging based on the number of requests and the duration of code execution. The software includes a free usage tier each month. Additional costs apply for functions that require higher memory or longer execution times, and charges may also be incurred for associated resources such as data transfer or storage.

“サーバー管理不要と自動スケーリングが運用負担を大幅に軽減”

5.0
Nov 30, 2025
​サーバー管理の心配がなく、コードのデプロイ後すぐに実行できる手軽さが素晴らしいです。特にスケーリングの自動化は、トラフィックの変動に気にせずサービスを運用できる大きなメリットだと感じました。コスト効率も良く、小規模な処理から始めやすいのも魅力です。

“複数言語対応と即動作の利便性に加え同時実行制限の指摘”

起動頻度の少ないツールを効果的に構築できたことが良かった。一方で呼び出し元、呼び出し方によりコードを変える必要がある部分はより簡易的に実装できれば嬉しかった。

    社内ノウハウ不足がモダンアーキテクチャ開発コストを押し上げる

    3.0
    Dec 3, 2025
    ベンダーのスキルがまだまだ浅く、内製の試みもあるが社内にノウハウが溜まっていないため、モダンアーキテクチャの開発コストがどうしても高くなってしまう。本来ならサーバレスでコスト最適化に繋がるのに、それが見込めないのも上長を説得するのが大変。
