AWS Lambda with Docker Overview

AWS announced Docker Container support in late 2020. In this video, I overview this new feature and how you can get started using it.

The walkthrough of doing this you mentioned with a link would be great! (as a few others have mentioned too) Many thanks for this preview.

I'd love to see this too.

[@matiascastro193]

Hello, great overview. Was the demo video ever posted?

[@irvinsmith1599]

Random question, but if I was trying to set up datadog’s agent, would I have it run in the same containers that my lambdas are firing off?

[@gavincoulson3900]

Awesome stuff, thanks for this.

[@BeABetterDev]

You're very welcome Gavin!

[@andypower5245]

Is it possible to find out, how much hosting my website with this configuration - lambda + docker - would cost?! No additional cost for locker here?

[@william3588]

Is there a demo for this?

[@robertkonarskis4206]

ECR stands for Elastic Container Registry, otherwise a great video!

[@BeABetterDev]

Thanks for that!

[@saminur9738]

Is it somehow possible to take the docker image from ECR and deploy it automatically to a lambda when a new image is pushed?

[@mithushanjalangan5132]

How are the costing ?

[@curiousobserver123]

Thank you a lot for this. Need help. I need to run c++ code in the runtime. SO my runtime is amazonlinux:2022. But problem is that I cannot pass the event to python function

[@bobcee8126]

Noice, you get sponsorships? 😎 Other than that, very knowledgeable video! Could I request perhaps how to develop APIs using the SAM CLI, I'm actually not too sure how to test them locally properly. I deploy and test from the url AWS gives me which isn't exactly ideal 😅 I mention this because you talk about this Runtime Emulator that I have no idea about haha

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Bob, thanks for the suggestion. I'm working on a video now on how to get started testing lambdas with the SAM CLI. Look for it soon!

[@DanielSilva-hi9kf]

Will you be doing a demo of this?

[@BeABetterDev]

Coming soon!

[@crcrux1516]

@@BeABetterDev Did you ever make a demo video of lambda and docker? I couldn’t find it in your video upload feed

[@MK-ef9iu]

Hey, I have a lambda that lasts more than 900s (15min), so it timeouts. Do you have any idea avout the what alternative can i use ? Thnkx for your content

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi M K, you should look into using ECS Fargate. You can still use docker, and run tasks that are longer running and completely serverless!

[@MK-ef9iu]

@@BeABetterDev ok cool. Will check that out and give my feedback. Keep up the good work 👍

[@tech3425]

If you made a tutorial for this, that'd be amazing!

[@zen-ventzi-marinov]

Other than if someone is already heavily invested in the Docker ecosystem, are there any other advantages of going Lambda with Docker, instead of simply Lambda? Edit: I literally wrote that comment 5 seconds before you answer it :D

[@gwaPaul23]

I still don't see the tutorial as others have mentioned. Would be nice.
