The lambda doesn't have a schedule within because doing so would split the concerns poorly; rather you would hit this lambda on your own schedule.

Or you could invoke the lambda on a schedule using Cloudwatch

Yup! Didn't want to include the TF to do the scheduling (for simplicity) but I could add it if people want.
