You may be interested to know that Lambda now supports scheduling: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-lambda-update-python-vp...

Edit: Oh, are you saying that you want to send an API call to schedule something? They say in the post that API support is coming, but I don't know if you could schedule a one-off run that way.

Yeah, we connect with other services so we need the ability to programmatically re-schedule a function to run in ~5 minutes if it failed the first time.
