Deploy Hamilton in AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda - serverless computation service in AWS.

Here we have an example how to deploy “hello-world” AWS Lambda with Hamilton functions. This example is based on the official instruction: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/python-image.html#python-image-instructions

Prerequisites

AWS CLI Setup: Make sure the AWS CLI is set up on your machine. If you haven't done this yet, no worries! You can follow the Quick Start guide for easy setup instructions.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Build Docker image:

Build Docker image for deploy in AWS ECR

docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t aws-lambda-hamilton .

Local tests:

Run Docker container:

docker run -p 9000:8080 aws-lambda-hamilton

Send test request to check if Docker container executes it correctly:

curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d '{"body": {"columns":["signups","spend"],"index":[0,1,2,3,4,5],"data":[[1,10],[10,10],[50,20],[100,40],[200,40],[400,50]]}}'

2. Create AWS ECR repository:

Ensure the AWS account number (111122223333) is correctly replaced with yours:

Authenticate Docker to Amazon ECR:
Retrieve an authentication token to authenticate your Docker client to your Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR):
```
aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin 111122223333.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
```

Create the ECR Repository:

aws ecr create-repository --repository-name aws-lambda-hamilton \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --image-scanning-configuration scanOnPush=true \
    --image-tag-mutability MUTABLE

3. Deploy the Image to AWS ECR

Ensure the AWS account number (111122223333) is correctly replaced with yours:

docker tag aws-lambda-hamilton 111122223333.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/aws-lambda-hamilton:latest
docker push 111122223333.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/aws-lambda-hamilton:latest

4. Create a simple AWS Lambda role:

Example of creating an AWS Role for Lambda execution:

aws iam create-role \
    --role-name lambda-ex \
    --assume-role-policy-document '{"Version": "2012-10-17","Statement": [{ "Effect": "Allow", "Principal": {"Service": "lambda.amazonaws.com"}, "Action": "sts:AssumeRole"}]}'

5. Create AWS Lambda

Ensure the AWS account number (111122223333) is correctly replaced with yours:

aws lambda create-function \
    --function-name aws-lambda-hamilton \
    --package-type Image \
    --code ImageUri=111122223333.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/aws-lambda-hamilton:latest \
    --role arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/lambda-ex

6. Test AWS Lambda

aws lambda invoke \
    --function-name aws-lambda-hamilton \
    --cli-binary-format raw-in-base64-out \
    --payload '{"body": {"columns":["signups","spend"],"index":[0,1,2,3,4,5],"data":[[1,10],[10,10],[50,20],[100,40],[200,40],[400,50]]}}' \
    response.json
