AWS Lambda turns ten – looking back and looking ahead | AWS News Blog

I have a very vague memory of a 2013-era meeting with my then-colleague Tim Wagner. The term serverless did not exist, but we chatted about various ways to allow developers to focus on code instead of on infrastructure. At some I recall throwing my arms skyward and indicating that it would be cool to simply toss the code into the air and have the cloud grab, store, and run it. After many more such meetings, Tim wrote a PRFAQ proposing that we build a platform that did just that, and in 2014 I was able to announce AWS Lambda – Run Code in the Cloud. .
