AWS Lambda is a great replacement for cronjobs when gluing various AWS infrastructure components together, but I would hesitate to use it for an actual application.
Pre-packaged lambda functions are a pain to deal with if you're standardizing on something like terraform for all AWS infra provisioning - you need to jump through extra hoops to repackage the lambda functions into something you can manage.
Replacing the zip deploys with Docker images is a good first step. I just wish they'd support inter-account ECR -> Lambda usage - ATM you still need to replicate the images to each account separately.
