AWS Lambda is a type of serverless computing service that eliminates the need for developers to set up or manage servers to run their code. It is highly scalable and cost-effective, making it a popular choice for developing applications that demand dynamic computing resources. Developers who want to understand AWS Lambda will like its flexibility and ability to integrate with other Amazon services.
In this Cloud Lab, you’ll learn to create a Lambda function using the AWS Management Console. You’ll also configure the Lambda function, including setting up its environment, runtime, and other settings and creating the Lambda URL. You’ll test the Lambda function in the AWS web console and use the Lambda URL in the web browser and local console using the curl command. You’ll also learn to invoke your Lambda function using the AWS SDK boto3 in Python. This knowledge can help you to build and deploy serverless applications that are scalable, cost-effective, and highly efficient.

Your method is simple, straight to the point and I can practice with it everywhere, even from my phone, that's something I have never had in other learning platforms.
I highly recommend Educative. The courses are well organized and easy to understand.
I prefer Educative courses because they have a nice mix of text & images. I find that with full video courses, it can often be too easy to go into passive learning mode.
