AWS Lambda Function URLs

AWS Introduces Lambda Function URLs to Simplify Serverless Deployments

general availability of Lambda Function URLs, a feature that lets developers directly configure a HTTPS endpoint and CORS headers for a Lambda function without provisioning other services.

With the new feature developers can avoid relying on the Amazon API Gateway or the Application Load Balancer to map a Lambda function to a HTTP call. Each function URL is globally unique and can be associated with a function’s alias or the function’s ARN, implicitly invoking the latest version

Lambda URL - Pricing per million requests:
- Rest API (first 333 mil) = $3.5
- HTTP API (first 300 mil) = $1.0
- Lambda URL = Free
- CloudFront proxying to Lambda URL = ~ $1.0 to $1.2
