AWS lambda should be thought of as functions that can be scaled independently.
I can write the functions in any one of the languages that are supported and they are all interlace-able through an interface. If I need to use ML and prefer python libraries, I can do that and call python from a nodejs function or vice-versa. All this without having to worry abt keeping a server up and secure and scaling.
There are issues with loading times and cost, but easily the best thing that happened for me as a single dev proving out a product MVP.

Am also curious to know why this comment was downvoted. Enter recursive spiral of downvoting. Would love a justify your downvote feature on HN. People hide behind their downvotes.
