Yeah I used the ARM price. I should have pointed that out. It's definitely a tradeoff. Here's a few things I think are advantageous for Lambda, * Integration with all the AWS Event Sources. * Faster autoscaling. * No need to setup a VPC (subnets, NAT gateway, security groups, VPC endpoints potentially, etc) * No need to setup autoscaling, multi-AZ, etc. * No need to support long lived instances. I don't think one is always better than the other.
