Lambda allows you to allocate memory for your functions in increments of 1 MB, ranging from a minimum of 128 MB to a maximum of 10,240 MB (10 GB). When we specify the memory size for a Lambda function, AWS will allocate CPU proportionally. For example, a 256 MB function will receive twice the processing power of a 128 MB function.

OpenTelemetry and Prometheus are both powerful observability tools, each with its own strengths. OpenTelemetry provides a standardized way to collect, instrument, and export telemetry data, while Prometheus excels at time-series monitoring and alerting. In this blog post, we will delve into the similarities and differences between OpenTelemetry and Prometheus, exploring the benefits and advantages of each.
