> The only thing that could make that tough is if you put the Lambdas in a VPC. That can get tricky because you have to plan out subnets and whatnot but still not a week.

Yeah, it’s about 20 minutes if you use the VPC and Lambda modules from https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules. I could see a week if you had to learn all of this first with little prior experience but that’s true of everything. A newbie running a Linux colo server isn’t going to get all of the security & reliability issues right in less time, either.
