Today AWS published <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/announcing-aws-lambda-web-functions-for-fast-consistent-web-app-performance-anywhere/">Announcing AWS Lambda Web Functions</a>, and it&rsquo;s a change to the programming model more than to the infrastructure: Lambda can now run <strong>a plain HTTP server</strong>, the kind that listens on a port, without rewriting it as an event handler.</p>
