I've been using it for lots of things lately. The last thing was to process ebs volumes that get left behind when leostream deletes instances from it's pools. (we need fresh machines all the time, so that's why we delete these instead of re-using) We have it delete the machine from the pool, and the ami is set to not delete the volume. I use a cloudwatch event to detect this, spin up a new ec2 instance, attach the available volume, process some logs from it and then delete the new ec2 instance along with the volume.

Thanks - that was useful. Low level admin of AWS env can be done via short lived lambdas, is what i can infer.
