Use Lambda Layer for AWS SDK for Java?
You can put your dependencies in a /java/lib directory in the layer.zip. This directory (/opt/java/lib) is already in the classpath. See here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/configuration-layers.html#configuration-layers-path More on reddit.com

In what scenario does using Java in Lambda make sense?
Very often the best language for a team/org is not the "best" language for particular component. If it's a Java based team it often doesn't make sense to dump all that investment just for Lambda if Java performance there is acceptable. Personally I won't use Node for anything if I can possibly avoid it. If Python isn't fast enough and in particular if threading will help I'll use Go. But even as anti-Node as I admit I am, I absolutely respect that in shops with a lot of Javascript talent due to frontend work it often makes the most sense to go with Node for backend work despite its many hair pulling issues. It's much better to be pragmatic than "right". Lambda supports a ton of languages (effectively all of them if we count custom runtimes) because it's pragmatic. More on reddit.com

August 11, 2023 - Just to give you a little bit of background about the handler method, the handleRequest() method has two parameters here. first is input which is the input event provided to the lambda function and second is the context which gives information about the invocation, function, and execution environment. Now when we are done creating the handler, We need to package our application and create a jar file which we will upload into AWS lambda.

January 11, 2025 - The AWS Lambda function allows us to upload a jar with a maximum size of 50 MB, and if the jar size is larger than or equivalent to 10 MB, we should use AWS S3.(alert-success) An upload window will appear. Click the 'Upload' button (as shown in the screenshot below) and select your bundled JAR file from your local machine. Finally, click the 'Save' button. Next, let's configure the Runtime Settings. Here, you can update the Java version and specify the request handler method path. Click the 'Edit' button to proceed. In the 'Handler' field, specify in.learnjavaskills.LambdaHandler::handleRequest.

October 26, 2020 - The map object will have all the information coming from the event (from the trigger, e.g. API Gateway, as a JSON formatted string), and the context is the information about the invocation (AWS request ID, lambda function version, lambda function ARN, execution environment details, and Cognito identity information). If you need to take advantage of the execution context for reuse (if the lambda function is on hold waiting for another usage), you can create some global variables (for example to create database connections, loggers, etc) public class Handler implements RequestHandler<Map<String,String>, String>{ private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Handler.class); @Override public String handleRequest(Map<String,String> event, Context context) { String response = new String("200 OK"); ...
