AWS Lambdas: Easy, Easier, Easiest

The Serverless Handbook warns about the difficulties with AWS. However, there are multiple platforms that provide developer-friendly wrappers for AWS Lambdas deployments, such as Netlify and Vercel. These platforms offer different APIs for "real AWS Lambda functions," each with its own strengths and weaknesses. The author's experience with these platforms has been mostly positive, with fewer gotchas than expected. While the choice between Amplify, Netlify, and Vercel may depend on individual preferences and needs, the author ultimately decided to use Vercel due to its integration with Next.js framework.
