Overview
About
Serverless functions, such as Lambda functions, provide an alternative to traditional applications or services. The functions run on servers that you do not have to manage yourself, and you pay for only for the compute time you use. However, you might want to invoke your serverless functions from other services or apps, such as the Kubernetes workloads that run in clusters in your Solo Enterprise for kgateway environment. By abstracting a Lambda as a type of destination in your Solo Enterprise for kgateway environment, your workloads can send requests to the Lambda destination in the same way that you set up routing through Solo Enterprise for kgateway to other types of destinations. Solo Enterprise for kgateway does the work of assuming an AWS IAM role to invoke the actual Lambda function in your AWS account.
For more information, see the AWS Lambda documentation on configuring Lambda functions as targets.
Lambda access type
