Level Up Your Serverless Applications with AWS Lambda Ready Partners

When Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers build with AWS Lambda, they need the right solutions to help them deploy, monitor, secure, and integrate their Lambda-based workloads.

The AWS Lambda Ready Program, part of the AWS Service Ready Program, makes it easy for customers to find developer tools and integrations that are validated by AWS serverless experts to work with AWS Lambda.

Customers use AWS Lambda to focus on product innovation while enjoying faster time-to-market, without thinking about server management. With AWS Lambda, you can simply upload and run code with high availability and fault tolerance built in, paying only for the compute time you consume.

AWS Lambda Ready Partner products support the serverless application development lifecycle and ecosystem. They provide solutions for application definition, management, and deployment, and solutions that extend and integrate with function runtimes and APIs.

Here are a few examples of AWS Lambda Ready Partners in action:

• Snyk is helping customers like New10 simplify their continuous delivery pipelines for AWS Lambda by directly integrating security vulnerability scanning.
• Thundra provides observability and distributed tracing, allowing customers like Soulpicks to quickly troubleshoot their AWS Lambda applications.
• Pulumi’s infrastructure-as-code solution helps customers to simplify their Lambda deployments, helping Learning Machine reduce new customer provisioning time from three weeks to one hour.

Introducing AWS Lambda Ready Partners

The AWS Service Ready Program validates products built by APN Technology Partners that integrate with specific services like AWS Lambda. Through this program, we confidently recommend APN Partner solutions to customers based on technical validation by AWS Partner Solutions Architects.

In order to qualify, each APN Partner’s product is validated against specific technical criteria for each type of integration with AWS Lambda.

For example, function definition and deployment tools, such as deployment frameworks, must support local testing and creating function versioning and aliases. Products that help customers manage and deploy their applications, such as CI/CD tools, must provide documentation that explicitly lists support for AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) or a similar framework for deploying AWS Lambda functions.

How APN Partners Can Get Started

Review the AWS Lambda Service Ready Validation Checklist to determine whether this designation fits your company’s product and technical strengths.

APN Technology Partners looking to get their AWS Lambda product validated through the AWS Service Ready Program must be a Select or Advanced Tier Partner and pass their APN Technical Baseline Review prior to qualifying.

• See the requirements for APN Technology Partner tiers.
• To ensure your product passes the Baseline Review, get best practices guidance in the Baseline Bits video series.
