AWS Lambda is an ingredient in amazon serverless computing. Lambda allows us to run server-side code without thinking about the server. It abstracts all of the other components i.e. servers, platforms, virtual machines, etc. that are needed to run server-side code. So we can just focus on the code and not the server. That way the time to production or deployment becomes very less. We can write a lambda function, configure it and run it in minutes.

server. That way the time to production or deployment becomes very less. We
can write a lambda function, configure it and run it in minutes.
Another great benefit of lambda is that we just pay for the compute time we
consume. That means it will charge only for the time that our code is actually
executed. Also, the first one million requests are free. We have to pay for
request thereafter. This a very cost-effective way to run the server-side code.
To get started first we need an AWS account. After creating the account we
need to go to the AWS management console.

3. Create a Lambda function with Node.js
Let’s create a lambda function that picks a random number between 2 given
number. First of all, login into the AWS console and then click the “Lambda”
button under the compute section. Then you can come to the “Select
blueprint” section. Then, under the select runtime combo box, select the latest
node.js version. Amazon gives you some basic blueprints there. We will just
select the simple hello world function to start with.
