AWS Lambda Room for Improvement

Andrew-Wong - PeerSpot reviewer
AWS Developer at Centrica

Having a better preview would be helpful. Sometimes, if my Lambda code is too big, it can be inconvenient as I'm unable to see my code when it exceeds a certain size. AWS has a limit, like a three-megabyte limit, beyond which I cannot view or edit the code easily.

They could add Copilot or their own suggestion tool, like CodeWhisperer, to the AWS IDE. The current IDE seems outdated and could be improved. 

Also, Lambda is restricted in terms of Internet access. 

You can't get public connectivity directly. You need to download packages manually elsewhere, zip the files, and add the layer manually. You can't install packages directly from the Internet, like PIP install Pandas.

One area where AWS Lambda could be improved is the execution timeout limit, which is currently capped at 15 minutes. This is restrictive for tasks that require longer processing times, such as complex data analysis or large-scale batch processing. Additionally, the environment customization is limited, particularly with regard to file system access, persistent storage, and certain execution capabilities, which can be restrictive for more advanced use cases. Another area for improvement is the cold start latency, which can add significant overhead to the execution time, especially for applications with infrequent or unpredictable invocations.

For future releases, it would be helpful if AWS Lambda allowed for longer execution times or offered an option for more flexible execution environments. Reducing cold start latency or offering features like provisioned concurrency with more granular control could also help improve the overall performance and responsiveness of Lambda functions.

AWS should provide more trial support for new users and customers. AWS should also provide basic access to perform some actions using different tools on the AWS platform. This would help customers understand the types of integration possible and the various tasks they can perform using AWS services.

The runtime could be improved. There are certain use cases where I need a Lambda function to run longer. I don't know how many minutes it is, however, there's a threshold that I can't exceed. If that time was extendable, it would help in some areas, not all areas, yet some.

I would say an increase in the current limits would be quite beneficial. Right now, the threshold is fifteen minutes. AWS has increased the limits from three to ten gigabytes, enhancing the productivity of different workloads. If this threshold is extended further, more workloads currently utilizing EC2 could potentially be executed using Lambda.

AWS Lambda is a bit difficult to set up if someone doesn't know how to code. It would be helpful to have a chatbot or resource that can guide users through the process, especially for those not proficient in coding. Setting up workflows that connect multiple AWS services can be challenging without guided support.

The way Lambda works with HTTP headers is a bit odd. It needs some change as the configuration is somewhat hidden, so I don't really know what I'm changing. Managing the HTTP headers should be modified for clarity since, at least in my case, I found it challenging to configure and manage them initially. I would suggest that this is an area for improvement.

There's always room for enhancement in terms of resource allocation and management for high-demand applications.

Performance issues can arise depending on how you allocate resources within Lambda. For example, if you're running a new application with a significant load, you need to be prepared for potential bottlenecks. 

It's essential to control network interactions and optimize for the type of application you're running. Lambda is excellent for small and lightweight applications, but for more resource-intensive tasks, you might need to look at other AWS services or a more distributed storage environment.

AWS Lambda could greatly benefit from enhancements in handling large-scale applications to support heavy workloads. This is actually feasible, but there is a need for further development in this area. 

Additionally, improvements in resource control optimization are crucial. For instance, enabling users to run data-intensive applications using a limited number of resources without compromising performance would be a valuable addition.

The first time Lambda is started up, it takes some time to spin up an instance for serving the consumer requests. AWS has been trying to solve this in a variety of ways but have not yet managed to do so. 

Lambda can only run for a maximum for 15 minutes. If you have a job which requires running for more than 15 minutes, you cannot use Lambda for that use case.

The only issue is that if you have Lambda in one AWS account and want to utilize it in another account, it can't be done. It's a limitation of the solution. S3 bucket provides that option with its resource access management. If you have a Python library and want to package it, you have to create the package of those libraries. It requires changing the conflict file and the patent library to create the package because the configuration is a little difficult for beginners. They should simplify package creation and configuration. Writing test cases is a little difficult because of the memory and short duration. Your computation has to be finished within that time limit.

The execution time could be better. One of the major limitations is the time period because it doesn't give you more than seven minutes. So, before thinking about Lambda, you should think through your use case and ensure it's a good fit. Otherwise, you can use batch, step functions, or other methods. 

Reports and the monitoring board could also be improved in terms of alerts. The threshold alerts are there but can be improved. It takes some time to get used to these methods and get the hang of them.

My engineers work with it on a daily basis. I just don't have enough depth of knowledge about what kinds of edge cases they may have tried and found lacking. There may be some issues with some language support at one point or another because we couldn't get the underlying libraries in there. A lot of what we do is either in JavaScript, Python, or some of the non-compiled languages. I'm not sure if we've ever tried building a C# solution, for instance, in Lambda or a Java solution in Lambda. It doesn't mean those aren't its capabilities. I would rather refer to my engineers for where the boundaries are.

Lambda has limitations on the amount of memory you can use and is not a good solution for long running processes. If the amount of data is reasonably small, it will run and transform successfully. If you have tons of data coming in, it stops working and you have to restart it.

The orchestration and coordination between different Lambdas could also be improved.

What could be improved in AWS Lambda is a tricky question because I base the area for improvement on a specific matrix, for example, latency, so I'm still determining if I can be the judge on that. However, room for improvement could be when you're using AWS Lambda as a backend, it can be challenging to use it for monitoring. Monitoring is critical in development, and I don't have much expertise in the area, but you can use other services such as Xray. I found that monitoring on AWS Lambda is a challenge. The tool needs better monitoring.

Another area for improvement in AWS Lambda is the cold start, where it takes some time to invoke a function the first time, but after that, invoking it becomes swift. Still, there's room for improvement in that AWS Lambda process.

In the next release of AWS Lambda, I'd like AWS to improve monitoring so that I can monitor codes better.

AWS Lambda's cold start needs to be improved. It has to warm up first, and so, the response time is slower.

Another challenge I've noticed is that there is a limit to the environment variables such as the 4 KB limit. Although, the advice is to use parameters or other things to store the details when the limit has exceeded the data, this adds additional intensity to the application. If the size limits for environment variables can be revealed, it would be helpful. Even if we have to pay for it, at least we would know that we are not dealing with latency. So, I would like to see the size of the environment variables increased.

I can only speak from the user experience. Salesforce integrates SharesPost efficiently. How? They say, "Okay, I invented another language called Apex. Forget about anything else. This is my language." The benefit of this language is that everything is simplified. Your system is super easy to maintain. But AWS then assures you that they are flexible, that they have a collection of 10 or 20 languages, and you just choose your environment and range. That's the reason I appreciate Salesforce. They always make things easier. They have their loop reasoning because they are a different kind of company. Microsoft and AWS really get the full spec. They want to own the business. But Salesforce data wants the simplest way.

So, this is my understanding and unique experience.

I think that perhaps Lambda could explore its functionality more.

From a very high-level perspective, it is a good solution, however, there are certain limitations. This becomes challenging for us. Specifically, a limitation is Lambda cannot continuously execute for more than 15 minutes. That could be one limitation. On an implementation level, there are certain limitations that I know about yet would not be the best person to explain as I am not technical.

The execution timeout can be increased so that if we have a lengthy process, it will not fail before their timeouts. We've had to revamp the way that it works due to that 15-minute timeout limitation.

If you want to run processing data, which takes less than 15 minutes, then you can use Lambda. However, if it is a specific ETL process or a long-term one, then AWS Lambda is not a good option.

The longer Lambda runs, the higher is the cost incurred because the cost is based on runtime.

At times, it hard to know when Lambda should be used and when it should not. So in the future, if there are serverless extensions, it would be fine.

The kind of scenarios we can leverage in Lambda can be difficult. For example, we have a lot of their servers that provide APIs. Before, the APIs were hosted by a server. We have identified that some of them can be hosted in Lambda. That's a challenge as we're yet to think of our scenario and match our requirements in order to really leverage Lambda. That's more on us than the solution itself.

We need to better understand Lambda for different scenarios. We need some joint effort between Amazon and the users to have the users identify how they can really leverage Lambda. It's not about Lambda itself; it's about the practice, the guidance. There needs to be very good documentation. From the user perspective, what exists now is not always enough.

AWS Platform Head & Chief Architect - CMA Unit at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

There are certain limitations to some services in Lambda which will have to be overcome over time. Primarily, I think there are two aspects of the product that are in most need of improvement.  

One is, of course, the customization. The process of customizing should be simplified.  

The other is specifically in the area of integration. The configuration requirements for the services which would be desirable to integrate with Lambda are not always as easy to utilize as they should be. For example, the opportunities we have to integrate solutions with the world outside of the cloud are not well supported. These integrations are supported well inside the cloud but some clients need to support solutions outside the cloud. If somebody has that need we should be able to deploy integrations with products and services outside the cloud as well. 

So those are the two drawbacks and potential areas for improvement area which I would like to see corrected in AWS. Those features need to be updated because the current functionality of the product is not competitive enough today with other products in the category. I think with time they have to improve and add new features or offer other ways of integrating new services.
