Posted on: Oct 10, 2017

Lambda@Edge enables you to personalize content with low latency, without having to manage origin servers. Starting today, Lambda@Edge makes it even easier to further personalize your content by giving you access to additional attributes of the request. You can now access query string parameters, country and device type headers in your AWS Lambda functions. With this capability, for instance, you can redirect your end users to country or language specific versions of your website based on your end user’s location from where the request was made.  

There is no additional fee for this feature. To learn more about Lambda@Edge, visit the product page. For more information on how to use this new feature, please see the resources below:
