AWS Lambda For The Impatient Part 3


We completed Part 2 of our tutorial on AWS Lambda by calling our Lambda function through an authenticated HTTP endpoint, aided by Postman and leveraging IAM security. In this third and final part, we do the same, only this time programmatically, with the aid of Perl and the Paws module.

Introducing Paws

Paws is a namespace rather than a module, that encompasses a plethora of sub-modules, which aim to, and actually succeed, in achieving the unprecedented:
to provide a unified programming interface to all accessible through APIs Amazon hosted services, be it Amazon Simple Queue Service, Amazon Simple Notification Service, EC2, DynamoDB
or as in this case, AWS Lambda.
We're going to consider Paws in action from two perspectives, assuming a user and assuming a role.

I was notified of Deep Angel around the time I was watching Kill Switch, a futuristic and dystopic movie about our Earth getting cloned in order to suck the resources of the cloned planet, something that would sustain our world's energy needs for at least another millennium.
