Not just costs! AWS services are opaque performance minefields, too.
If you need reliable low latency -- which is probably core to the slack experience, or any GUI in a competitive space, really -- lambda is not a good option. They just don't share your priorities. AWS support will happily waste a lot of your time chasing Just One More Trick to mitigate the problem, though.
