Another pretty basic Lambda thing the author didn’t mention is the alias feature. So rather than having users-api-dev, users-api-qa - we just have users-api and it has a alias for each environment. The environment variable management is not amazing but just using a key-value JSON {dev: {a: “bc”}} works fine.

There’s also truly no reason one lambda function can’t have a collection of APIs (using the proxy method from API gateway). It’s literally no different from any other micro service setup. You can pick any abstraction for a function to cover.

If you start trying to work around the limits of your abstraction, maybe you just chose the wrong one in the first place.

This is what seems to happen when working with Lambda for me.
