Thanks. Very concise.

Thanks. Got me up and running quick.

Thanks for this - I assume this only works in 'us-east-1'?

How long does the deployment takes every time you change the lambda code? As my understanding it will take approximately 20-30 minutes to replicate the function every code change.

Needs to upgrade node version to 10.x and the region must be us-east-1

Thanks jed , this post has been alot helpful !!
