Of all the “lock in” of AWS, lambda functions are the easiest to convert. Not only that, you can write a standard Node/Express C#/Web API, Python/Django service, throw a proxy on top of it and deploy it either to lambda or a standard server just by slightly tweaking your build pipeline.

A lambda function is nothing more than a standard app with an entry point with two arguments. Your handler function should be “skinny” just like a Controller action in a typical MVC framework.
