How can the developer achieve this goal with the LEAST operational overhead?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

A function alias is a pointer to a specific Lambda function version. You can use aliases to create different environments for your function, such as development, testing, and production. You can also use aliases to perform blue/green deployments by shifting traffic between two versions of your function gradually. This way, you can easily roll back to a previous version if something goes wrong, without having to redeploy your code or change your configuration. Reference:AWS Lambda function aliases

I thought C was a good option too, but it sounds like more work.

I think using AWS CodePipeline might be overkill for just rolling back to older versions. Aliases sound simpler.

I feel like we had a practice question about blue/green deployments, but that seemed more complex than what’s needed here.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think maintaining deployment packages in S3 could be more work than just using aliases.

I remember we discussed using function aliases in class. It seems like a straightforward way to manage versions without too much hassle.
