Aws Lambda Managed Instances

This one helps you figure out if AWS Lambda Managed Instances makes sense for your workload and handles the migration. LMI lets you run Lambda functions on EC2 hardware in your account while AWS manages the infrastructure. It's built for high-volume, steady-state workloads where Lambda's duration pricing adds up fast, think 50M+ requests a month. The skill walks through cost comparison (critical before you commit), instance sizing, and the real gotcha: making your code thread-safe for Node.js, Java, and .NET runtimes since LMI runs multiple invocations concurrently. Python gets process isolation so it's easier. Includes infrastructure setup scripts and a migration checklist. Honestly most Lambda workloads don't need this, but when the math works it can cut costs significantly.
