#567: AWS Lambda SnapStart
from AWS Podcast · host Amazon Web Services
Learn about the newly released AWS Lambda SnapStart for Java, delivering up to 10x faster function startup performance. SnapStart is a performance optimization feature that initializes your function ahead of time and caches a snapshot of its execution environment. When your function is then invoked - or scales up - AWS Lambda resumes execution from that snapshot, instead of initializing your function from scratch, significantly improving cold starts. You can enable SnapStart for new or existing Java-based serverless applications such as financial computations, machine learning inference, synchronous APIs, or data processing.
