Using container images with serverless function...

Using container images with serverless functions... and containers!

ServerlessDays Warsaw, October 20th, 2021

Serverless functions have been designed from the start for simplicity, providing a managed runtime to execute your code. But code can include different kinds of dependencies, such as libraries, machine learning models, or graphical assets such as fonts. To help you with these use cases, AWS Lambda now supports container images as a packaging format. Let’s see how this works, when to use it, and how to build container images that work with both functions and traditional container environments.

    CONTAINER IMAGES WITH SERVERLESS FUNCTIONS... AND CONTAINERS! Why use container images with serverless functions? Simplify dependency management, especially for dependencies installed outside of the runtime platform (such as OS dependencies). AWS Lambda max deployment package size: • ZIP format: 250 MB • Container image: 10 GB Use existing container tooling. Centralize development workflow around tools processing container images. 4

    CONTAINER IMAGES WITH SERVERLESS FUNCTIONS... AND CONTAINERS! Takeaways • Using container images to package serverless functions can help if you are already suing containers (and container tooling) in your development workflow. • Container images can simplify managing large dependencies and dependencies managed outside of the runtime. • You can use the same container images to server web traffic with serverless functions and traditional container environments. 22
