Lambda + API Gateway

4/5/2024
AWS Lambda
• Serverless compute service operating as a Function as a Service (FaaS) platform,
automatically executing scripts without requiring server management

• Responds to different events from AWS services, automatically scaling to


accommodate workload, and ensuring high availability for applications through multi-
zone scaling

• Charges based on actual compute time (correlated with memory allocations) and
function invocations without upfront fees. It doesn't bill for idle resources, aligning
costs directly with usage (100ms increments)

• Integrates with various AWS services and supports multiple programming


languages, enabling interaction with external APIs, databases, or services hosted
outside of AWS

AWS API Gateway

• Fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create,


publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale

• It's a gateway for apps to connect with backend services like AWS
Lambda, DynamoDB, HTTP endpoints, or any web service, serving
as a centralized access point

• Integrates with both AWS services and external services, enabling


developers to build APIs that interact with a wide range of
resources and systems, both within and outside the AWS

• Provides security features, including authentication and


authorization mechanisms such as AWS IAM, OAuth 2.0, and API https://blog.hubspot.com/website/api-gateway

keys, ensuring secure access control for API endpoints
