How to setup AWS lambda function to talk to the internet and VPC

I'm going to walk you through the steps for setting up a AWS Lambda to talk to the internet and a VPC. Let's dive in.

So it might be really unintuitive at first but lambda functions have three states.

  1. No VPC, where it can talk openly to the web, but can't talk to any of your AWS services.
  2. VPC, the default setting where the lambda function can talk to your AWS services but can't talk to the web.
  3. VPC with NAT, The best of both worlds, AWS services and web.

How to copy production database on AWS RDS(postgresql) to local development database.
  1. Change your database RDS instance security group to allow your machine to access it.
    • Add your ip to the security group to acces the instance via Postgres.
  2. Make a copy of the database using pg_dump
    • $ pg_dump -h <public dns> -U <my username> -f <name of dump file .sql> <name of my database>
    • you will be asked for postgressql password.
    • a dump file(.sql) will be created
  3. Restore that dump file to your local database.
    • but you might need to drop the database and create it first
    • $ psql -U <postgresql username> -d <database name> -f <dump file that you want to restore>
  • the database is restored

Copy between S3 buckets w/ different accounts

This is a mix between two sources:

basically the first resource is great but didn't work for me: I had to remove the trailing "/*" in the resource string to make it work. I also noticed that setting the policy on the source bucket was sufficient. In the end these are the exact steps I followed to copy data between two buckets on two accounts

Basically the idea there is:

  • we allowe the destination account to read the source bucket (in the console for the source account)
  • we log as the destination and start the copy
