Overview
This AMI allows you to deploy Chromium and the browser automation framework Playwright to a NodeJS Lambda function. Start an instance of this AMI, configure an IAM user for deployment, and run the predefined code in this instance. Scale Playwright to infinity by using this serverless architecture.
We offer the following deployment options:
- Deploy a minimalist Chromium build to Lambda's default NodeJS runtime (cold startup time around 5 seconds) - includes some minor adjustment to the Playwright framework.
- Deploy full-featured Chromium via custom Docker images (cold startup time up to 40 seconds) - uses pure Playwright without any workarounds.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
