Architecture optimization with direct service integrations

Direct Service Integrations

This repo is associated with the AWS Blog post: Optimizing architecture using direct service integrations.

It is divided in two parts:

• Initial architecture, that makes heavy use of AWS Lambda functions to perform all operations.
• Improved architecture, that get ride of most of them and favor direct integrations when that make sense.

As general recommendations:

• Don't use Lambda functions to transport data (from one service to another), use them to transform data.
• Don't use Lambda functions to just make AWS API call, use Step Functions Direct Integration to do that and use Lambda to implement business logic when Step Functions is not enough.
