Starting today, AWS Lambda supports SnapStart for functions packaged as container images, reducing startup times from several seconds to as low as sub-second. Lambda SnapStart is an opt-in capability that makes it easier for you to build highly responsive and scalable applications without provisioning resources or implementing complex performance optimizations. Customers deploy Lambda functions with container images to align with their organization's container-based deployment standards, or to package larger dependencies up to 10 GB. However, larger container images can experience startup times of several seconds as Lambda downloads image la…

AWS Lambda recursive loop detection has expanded support to all commercial AWS Regions. This feature, which is enabled by default, is a guardrail that automatically detects and stops recursive invocations between Lambda functions and other supported services, preventing runaway workloads. When using event sources such as Amazon S3, Amazon SQS, and Amazon SNS to trigger Lambda functions, a misconfiguration or code defect can cause events to be sent back to the same source that triggered the Lambda function, causing recursive loops, unintended usage, and unexpected billing. When such a loop is detected, Lambda recursive loop detection automati…
