How can I optimize memory usage in AWS Lambda functions?

How can I optimize memory usage in AWS Lambda functions?

To optimize memory usage in AWS Lambda, you can start by analyzing your function's memory consumption and adjusting the allocated memory based on your needs.

What tools can I use to monitor memory usage?

You can use AWS CloudWatch to monitor memory usage, as it provides metrics for your Lambda functions.

Are there best practices for setting memory limits?

Yes, a best practice is to allocate just enough memory to handle your function's workload, as higher memory also increases CPU power.

Can I dynamically adjust memory during execution?

No, memory allocation for a Lambda function is set at deployment time and cannot be changed during execution.

What happens if I exceed the memory limit?

If you exceed the memory limit, your Lambda function will be terminated, and you'll receive an error indicating that the function ran out of memory.
