Nice! I have been doing some experimentation with running ansible on AWS Lambda for some time now, and now I'm wondering if this wouldn't be even better for that. I had to pin ansible to an old version and do some weird stuff when building the deployment zip, but it does work. I'm not all that tied to my playbooks, and actually would prefer to write in python rather than yaml (incidentally this is the same reason I still like chef's use of ruby so much, even though ansible being agentless is more useful to me)
Seems like this could potentially do the same thing, even faster. Though I admit I have not dived in all that deep yet. Anyone tried it or see anything that would prevent it from running that way?
If not I guess I'll give it a go this weekend.
