AWS Lambda

The AWS Lambda destination allows you to send your event data directly to AWS Lambda functions in real-time. This enables serverless processing of your events using AWS's serverless compute service. With AWS Lambda, you can perform custom processing on your events such as:

• Data transformation and enrichment
• Custom hashing or encryption
• Data validation and sanitization
• Integration with other AWS services
• Custom storage logic
• Real-time analytics processing

Configuration

To set up the AWS Lambda destination:

1. Navigate to the Destinations section in your account
2. Click "Add Destination" and select "AWS Lambda"
3. Provide the following information:
   • AWS Region
   • Lambda Function Name

Event Format

Events sent to your Lambda function will be in the following format:

{
  "event": {
    "name": "Order Completed",
    ...etc
  },
  "visitor": {
    "email": "[email protected]",
    ...etc
  }
}

Best Practices

• Ensure your Lambda function has appropriate access policies (you will need to contact a member of the Ours Privacy team for this)
• Consider using environment variables for configuration
• Implement proper error handling and retry logic in your Lambda function
• Monitor Lambda function performance and set appropriate timeouts
• Use AWS CloudWatch for logging and monitoring
