AWS Lambda Java Integration

Patterns for creating high-performance AWS Lambda functions in Java with optimized cold starts.

Overview

This skill provides complete patterns for AWS Lambda Java development, covering two main approaches:

1. Micronaut Framework - Full-featured framework with AOT compilation, dependency injection, and cold start < 1s
2. Raw Java - Minimal overhead approach with cold start < 500ms

Both approaches support API Gateway and ALB integration with production-ready configurations.

When to Use

• Deploying Java functions to AWS Lambda
• Optimizing cold starts below 1 second
• Choosing between Micronaut and Raw Java approaches
• Configuring API Gateway or ALB integration
• Setting up CI/CD pipelines for Java Lambda
