Did you know that detecting the AWS environment can allow you to test your lambda locally in the same code? I will break this review in the following sections: Talk about the general techniques to detect an AWS environment Provide an example of how to do this in NodeJS and Python Test it out and see some real examples first locally and then in AWS

Now that we have the code finished we can go ahead and run it inside a Lambda environment to see what output we will get and if there’s anything in those variables that we can use later for detecting the AWS environment.

Selecting The Right Environment Variables To Detect An AWS Lambda Environment

We were able to successfully go over How To Detect If I am Running In AWS Lambda Environment, hopefully I answered any questions you may have had and helped you get started on debugging and testing your AWS Lambda locally.
