summary

Shows how to run small Node.js APIs on AWS Lambda + API Gateway, replacing bulky Heroku VMs and removing about 50% of legacy orchestration code. Demonstrates a 20-line GitHub label SVG generator, a WikiData mind‑map visualizer and a Slack support bot, all cheap because the first million requests are free and Lambda bills per 100ms (example given ~$8 per million 100ms at 512MB). Notes limits: 5 minute execution cap and ~1.5GB total bundle quota, and recommends Claudia/Apex/Serverless for deployments.
