Pros
Overall experience with AWS lambda is good it is best suited for running a script without a server and monitoring is also provided which helps to keep things in check.
It allows the development of very heterogeneous applications thanks to its strong flexibility. Another strong point is the price which is calculated only for the CPU time that is used.
Overall experience was great. Can recommend others to try this awesome feature.
Cons
Not cost effective as every call to a function will be charged. Limited plugins and execution time.
Bundle size and cold start times may be limiting for big projects. Also DB connection management can be a problem for concurrent runs.
Nothing that can be seen as a negative. However an optimal solution for cold starts can be arrived with no extra cost.
