Is the name a reference to Half-Life / Gordon Freeman due to its lambda complex level?

Starred. This looks fantastic. I&#x27;ve been exploring lambda deployment options for my new Alexa skills kit library, since Amz pushes lambda.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;johnwheeler&#x2F;flask-ask" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;johnwheeler&#x2F;flask-ask</a>.<p>Can you please explain any differences over Zappa and if you&#x27;re deploying flask?<p>Oh, and the project name is oh so damn cool.

If you&#x27;re interested in dirt simple Lambda deployment, check out Kappa[0], written by the same person as boto.<p>Gordon looks interesting and I&#x27;m definitely going to check it out, but from what I can tell, one of the downsides is that it uses CF.<p>Don&#x27;t get me wrong, I love CF for it&#x27;s reproducibility, but waiting for a CF stack to run on every deploy will be frustrating for rapid iteration. CF is great for managing your infrastructure once you have a good idea of how it should look and aren&#x27;t making constant changes anymore.<p>I suspect my workflow will be something like using Kappa while I&#x27;m iterating, and then using Gordon for the final deployment once it looks like everything is working as expected.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;garnaat&#x2F;kappa" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;garnaat&#x2F;kappa</a>

This looks great.<p>I&#x27;m particularly excited about the CloudFormation support.<p>If you&#x27;re managing stuff on AWS without CloudFormation you&#x27;re missin out on one of the most powerful features of the platform.<p>CF can be pretty hard to use, which is why I love seeing OSS projects that solved the tedious parts of it for all of us to use.

+1 for support of local execution of lambdas.

what about github.com&#x2F;apex&#x2F;apex ?

This is great. I wish this was around 8 months ago when I built lambda infrastructure at Cronitor. Local invocation, multi region deploys and config management all took far too much development time.

How does this compare to serverless? (full disclosure, we are starting to use it a ridiculous amount at fanatics)

Nice work! Potentially I could use this to deploy lambda-comments. :-)
