AWS Lambda shifted in the way Ops teams provision and manage their organization's infrastructure. Customers can now run their code without worrying about the underlying infrastructure while paying a low price.

However, intensive use cases and huge workload applications can unnecessarily cost you thousands of dollars if you don't pay extra attention to your function's resource usage and code optimization.
