Announcing AWS Lambda Web Functions
Summary
AWS announced Lambda Web Functions, a new form factor that lets you run standard HTTP web applications on Lambda without rewriting code into an event handler. It provides port-listening servers with multi-concurrent execution and active CPU billing, and complements existing Lambda form factors (Event Functions and MicroVMs). The post includes setup, multi-region deployment, canary-style traffic shifting, and integration with CloudFront, outlining availability, supported runtimes, and networking options.
