AWS Lambda extensions partners
AWS Lambda has partnered with several third party entities to provide extensions to integrate with your Lambda Event Functions. The following list details third party extensions that are ready for you to use at any time.
-
AppDynamics
– Provides automatic instrumentation of Node.js or Python Lambda Event Functions, providing visibility and alerting on Event Function performance. -
Axiom
– Provides dashboards for monitoring Lambda Event Function performance and aggregate system-level metrics. -
Datadog
– Provides comprehensive, real-time visibility to your serverless applications through the use of metrics, traces, and logs. -
Dynatrace
– Provides visibility into traces and metrics, and uses AI for automated error detection and root cause analysis across the entire application stack. -
Elastic
– Provides Application Performance Monitoring (APM) to identify and resolve root cause issues using correlated traces, metrics, and logs. -
Epsagon
– Listens to invocation events, stores traces, and sends them in parallel to Lambda Event Function executions. -
Fastly
– Protects your Lambda Event Functions from suspicious activity, such as injection-style attacks, account takeover through credential stuffing, malicious bots, and API abuse. -
HashiCorp Vault
– Manages secrets and makes them available for developers to use within Event Function code, without making Event Functions Vault aware. -
Honeycomb
– Observability tool for debugging your app stack. -
Lumigo
– Profiles Lambda Event Function invocations and collects metrics for troubleshooting issues in serverless and microservice environments. -
New Relic
– Runs alongside Lambda Event Functions, automatically collecting, enhancing, and transporting telemetry to New Relic's unified observability platform. -
Sedai
– An autonomous cloud management platform, powered by AI/ML, that delivers continuous optimization for cloud operations teams to maximize cloud cost savings, performance, and availability at scale. -
Sentry
– Diagnose, fix, and optimize performance of Lambda Event Functions. -
Site24x7
– Achieve real-time observability into your Lambda environments -
Splunk
– Collects high-resolution, low-latency metrics for efficient and effective monitoring of Lambda Event Functions. -
Sumo Logic
– Provides visibility into the health and performance of serverless applications. -
Salt Security
– Simplifies API posture governance and API security for Lambda Event Functions through automated setup and support for diverse runtimes.
AWS managed extensions
AWS provides its own managed extensions, including:
-
AWS AppConfig – Use feature flags and dynamic data to update your Lambda Event Functions. You can also use this extension to update other dynamic configuration, such as ops throttling and tuning.
-
Amazon CodeGuru Profiler – Improves application performance and reduces cost by pinpointing an application's most expensive line of code and providing recommendations for improving code.
-
CloudWatch Lambda Insights – Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize the performance of your Lambda Event Functions through automated dashboards.
-
AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT)
– Enables Event Functions to send trace data to AWS monitoring services such as AWS X-Ray, and to destinations that support OpenTelemetry such as Honeycomb and Lightstep. -
AWS Parameters and Secrets – Securely retrieve parameters from AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store and secrets from AWS Secrets Manager in Lambda Event Functions.
