AWS Lambda

Overview​

The GO Feature Flag relay proxy can easily be launched as an AWS Lambda function.

How to start the relay proxy as an AWS Lambda function​

To start GO Feature Flag relay-proxy as a lambda you have to set the option startAsAwsLambda in your configuration file to true, and you have to set which lambda handler you want to use, by setting the option awsLambdaAdapter.

goff-proxy.yaml
# ...
startAsAwsLambda: true
awsLambdaAdapter: APIGatewayV2
# ...
Field nameMandatoryTypeDefaultDescription
startAsAwsLambdabooleanfalseSet to true if you want to start the GO Feature Flag relay proxy as an AWS Lambda
awsLambdaAdapterstringAPIGatewayV2

This param is used only if startAsAwsLambda is true.

This parameter allow you to decide which type of AWS lambda handler you wan to use.

Accepted values are:

  • APIGatewayV2
  • APIGatewayV1
  • ALB

Once you've updated your configuration file, you can deploy your function in AWS and configure it to be accessible via HTTP. This can be achieved by creating an API Gateway or an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and linking it to your Lambda function.

By configuring your GO Feature Flag relay proxy to run as an AWS Lambda function, you can take advantage of many benefits of serverless computing, including automatic scaling, reduced infrastructure costs, and simplified deployment and management.
