Yes, but I guess in that case you would put your lambda function behind an API gateway, and limit the user requests. If it's a static content you would serve it from a CDN. Not a specialist on this, but that's what I would do.

Wouldn't an API gateway typically limit requests per IP/end user?

I guess it could limit global request rate. But the idea of unbounded elastic services behind a global rate limiter is just funny to me. Like a Ferrari with a 50mph limiter.

Yes, I still don't get it.
