if you are at load level when you have million lambdas executing concurrently your monthly bill will make even Uncle Sam cry.

In the case of the blog post at least: It is a 1,000 lambdas making 1,000 queries each.

Unrealistic from the Lambda side, yes! But we were just trying to generate connections to the DB, not test the capabilities of Lambda
