Pandas & AWS Lambda

Question

Does anyone have a fully compiled version of pandas that is compatible with AWS Lambda?

After searching around for a few hours, I cannot seem to find what I\'m looki

Answer 1

The easiest way to get pandas working in a Lambda function is to utilize Lambda Layers and AWS Data Wrangler. A Lambda Layer is a zip archive that contains libraries or dependencies. According to the AWS documentation, using layers keeps your deployment package small, making development easier.

The AWS Data Wrangler is an open source package that extends the power of pandas to AWS services.
