Anyone come up with solutions for Lambda functions to effectively use database connection pools without the use of a dedicated server?

Can't wait for that. Although I like DynamoDB, I'd love to connect to a Postgres RDS deployment from Lambda.

Agreed, this really is the last thing holding me back from going all out on Lambda.

Jeremy Daly has created the mysql-serverless[1] library that helps elliviate a lot of the issues with using MySQL within Lambda.

MySQL tends to have very low connection times, which helps a lot in this area also.

I don't think so.

Guess you're stuck with Aurora Serverless or DynamoDB.
