As an FYI, Databricks' "Delta Live Tables" product keeps being contracted to "DLT" at my employer, so you have some potential naming confusion in your future.

Thank you for the heads up!

it is unfortunate, and with 3 letter acronyms this will happen.

An easy way to remember is that we are the one you can pip install and plays well in the ecosystem.

Databricks has interesting choice in marketing names, ngl - DLT named after the competing dbt - Renaming standards like raw/staging/prod to Bronze, Silver, Gold

I had a related problem when searching for "dlt on aws lambda"... Google thinks "dlt" is an abbreviation of "delete" and returns results accordingly

We hear a lot about the dlt & AWS Lambda. We have currently one user working on the use case (see our Slack https://dlthub-community.slack.com/archives/C04DQA7JJN6/p169...)

for now :) Thanks for pointing it out - and it looks like we should add an aws lambda guide too :)

If you want to deploy to lambda, try asking in the slack community, some folks there do it.

Or if you wanna try yourself, here is a similar guide that highlights some concerns from deploying on gcp cloud functions https://dlthub.com/docs/walkthroughs/deploy-a-pipeline/deplo...
