AWS Lambda runs our code on a high-availability compute infrastructure and performs all of the administration of the compute resources, including server and operating system maintenance, capacity provisioning and automatic scaling, code monitoring, and logging.

We can invoke our Lambda functions using the Lambda API, or Lambda can run your functions in response to events from other AWS services.

In this project, we’ll start by creating a new AWS Lambda project. We’ll visualize the charts in this application. Instead of following whichever means AWS provides, we’ll use serverless technology to create a new project. At the very least, we need to select a programming language for our functions and a directory we want to use to keep the project files. We’ll use Node.js in our examples.
