Amazon Web Services this week said .NET-centric developers using its cloud platform to write AWS Lambda functions can now do so in C# while leveraging .NET Core 2.0 libraries.

AWS recently introduced runtime management controls, which provide more visibility and control when Lambda applies runtime updates to functions.

Now, with SnapStart, AWS is addressing this by creating snapshots of a customer’s Lambda functions and then simply starting those up without having to go through the usual initialization process.

AWS Lambda has played a pivotal role in shaping the cloud computing landscape, but its evolution is far from over.

Its new support for AWS Lambda functions adds continual, automated vulnerability assessments for serverless compute workloads, according to AWS’ announcement.
