AWS Lambda: Synchronous vs Asynchronous Invocation

2024-07-17T03:30:08+00:00

You can invoke a Lambda function in two ways. Synchronous Invocation The first one is called Synchronous invocation, which is the default mode. Synchronous invocation is pretty straightforward. When you invoke a function synchronously, AWS Lambda waits until the function is done processing, then returns the result. Let’s see how this works through the following example: The diagram illustrates a Lambda function-backed API that is managed by API Gateway. When API Gateway receives a GET request from the /getOrder resource, it invokes the getOrder function. The function receives an event containing the payload, processes it, and then returns the result. [...]

Connecting your Lambda Function to a Private Database

2023-05-15T02:11:53+00:00

If you want your Lambda function to interact with resources (e.g., RDS database, EC2 instance) inside a private subnet, you won't be able to do so by default. The reason for this is that Lambda functions live in an isolated and secured VPC managed by AWS. This is why when you create a Lambda function, you don’t go through any networking configurations (VPC, subnet, ENIs), unlike when creating EC2 instances. Also, you cannot establish a VPC peering connection between the VPC where Lambda functions are run and the VPC where your private resources are located because the former is not [...]
