Creating and configuring Lambda functions
This section describes how to create and configure AWS Lambda functions used by Kyvos to manage Analytical Server operations, such as scheduled start, forced start, and displaying cluster status in the Kyvos Web Portal.
AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that runs your code in response to events and automatically manages the underlying compute resources for you.
Kyvos uses Lambda to start the Analytical Server instances. The CloudFormation template creates three Lambda functions for:
Scheduled start of the Analytical Server
Forced start of the Analytical Server
Display cluster status on the Kyvos Web UI
You can use your externally created Lambda functions with Kyvos. Use any of the following methods to create and configure the external Lambda functions.
