AWS Lambda Managed Instances (LMI) let users run Lambda workloads on EC2 instances with managed lifecycle, patching, and scaling. This model provides specialized hardware configurations and pricing benefits while preserving Lambda’s operational simplicity.

LMI supports integration with Lambda’s existing event sources and AWS tools like CloudWatch and X-Ray. Users define capacity providers specifying compute and network settings, attaching Lambda functions via console or APIs. The service is broadly available except in select Middle Eastern and Asia-Pacific regions.
