With S3 Object Lambda, you’ll be able to use your personal code to course of knowledge retrieved from Amazon S3 as it’s returned to an software. Over time, we added new capabilities to S3 Object Lambda, like the power to add your personal code to S3 HEAD and LIST API requests, along with the help for S3 GET requests that was obtainable at launch.
Right now, we’re launching aliases for S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors. Aliases are actually robotically generated when S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors are created and are interchangeable with bucket names wherever you utilize a bucket title to entry knowledge saved in Amazon S3. Due to this fact, your purposes don’t have to learn about S3 Object Lambda and may contemplate the alias to be a bucket title.
Now you can use an S3 Object Lambda Entry Level alias as an origin to your Amazon CloudFront distribution to tailor or customise knowledge for finish customers. You should utilize this to implement automated picture resizing or to tag or annotate content material as it’s downloaded. Many photos nonetheless use older codecs like JPEG or PNG, and you need to use a transcoding operate to ship photos in additional environment friendly codecs like WebP, BPG, or HEIC. Digital photos include metadata, and you may implement a operate that strips metadata to assist fulfill knowledge privateness necessities.
Let’s see how this works in follow. First, I’ll present a easy instance utilizing textual content you could comply with alongside by simply utilizing the AWS Administration Console. After that, I’ll implement a extra superior use case processing photos.
Utilizing an S3 Object Lambda Entry Level because the Origin of a CloudFront Distribution
For simplicity, I’m utilizing the similar software within the launch put up that modifications all textual content within the authentic file to uppercase. This time, I take advantage of the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level alias to arrange a public distribution with CloudFront.
I comply with the identical steps as within the launch put up to create the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level and the Lambda operate. As a result of the Lambda runtimes for Python 3.8 and later don’t embody the requests module, I replace the operate code to make use of urlopen from the Python Commonplace Library:
import boto3
from urllib.request import urlopen
s3 = boto3.consumer('s3')
def lambda_handler(occasion, context):
print(occasion)
object_get_context = occasion['getObjectContext']
request_route = object_get_context['outputRoute']
request_token = object_get_context['outputToken']
s3_url = object_get_context['inputS3Url']
# Get object from S3
response = urlopen(s3_url)
original_object = response.learn().decode('utf-8')
# Rework object
transformed_object = original_object.higher()
# Write object again to S3 Object Lambda
s3.write_get_object_response(
Physique=transformed_object,
RequestRoute=request_route,
RequestToken=request_token)
returnTo check that that is working, I open the identical file from the bucket and thru the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level. Within the S3 console, I choose the bucket and a pattern file (known as s3.txt) that I uploaded earlier and select Open.
A brand new browser tab is opened (you may have to disable the pop-up blocker in your browser), and its content material is the unique file with mixed-case textual content:
Amazon Easy Storage Service (Amazon S3) is an object storage service that gives...
I select Object Lambda Entry Factors from the navigation pane and choose the AWS Area I used earlier than from the dropdown. Then, I seek for the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level that I simply created. I choose the identical file as earlier than and select Open.
Within the new tab, the textual content has been processed by the Lambda operate and is now all in uppercase:
AMAZON SIMPLE STORAGE SERVICE (AMAZON S3) IS AN OBJECT STORAGE SERVICE THAT OFFERS...
Now that the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level is appropriately configured, I can create the CloudFront distribution. Earlier than I do this, within the record of S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors within the S3 console, I copy the Object Lambda Entry Level alias that has been robotically created:
Within the CloudFront console, I select Distributions within the navigation pane after which Create distribution. Within the Origin area, I take advantage of the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level alias and the Area. The total syntax of the area is:
ALIAS.s3.REGION.amazonaws.com
S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors can’t be public, and I take advantage of CloudFront origin entry management (OAC) to authenticate requests to the origin. For Origin entry, I choose Origin entry management settings and select Create management setting. I write a reputation for the management setting and choose Signal requests and S3 within the Origin sort dropdown.
Now, my Origin entry management settings use the configuration I simply created.
To cut back the variety of requests going via S3 Object Lambda, I allow Origin Defend and select the closest Origin Defend Area to the Area I’m utilizing. Then, I choose the CachingOptimized cache coverage and create the distribution. Because the distribution is being deployed, I replace permissions for the assets utilized by the distribution.
Setting Up Permissions to Use an S3 Object Lambda Entry Level because the Origin of a CloudFront Distribution
First, the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level wants to present entry to the CloudFront distribution. Within the S3 console, I choose the S3 Object Lambda Entry Level and, within the Permissions tab, I replace the coverage with the next:
{
"Model": "2012-10-17",
"Assertion": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "cloudfront.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "s3-object-lambda:Get*",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3-object-lambda:REGION:ACCOUNT:accesspoint/NAME",
"Condition": {
"StringEquals": {
"aws:SourceArn": "arn:aws:cloudfront::ACCOUNT:distribution/DISTRIBUTION-ID"
}
}
}
]
}The supporting entry level additionally wants to permit entry to CloudFront when known as through S3 Object Lambda. I choose the entry level and replace the coverage within the Permissions tab:
{
"Model": "2012-10-17",
"Id": "default",
"Assertion": [
{
"Sid": "s3objlambda",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "cloudfront.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "s3:*",
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:REGION:ACCOUNT:accesspoint/NAME",
"arn:aws:s3:REGION:ACCOUNT:accesspoint/NAME/object/*"
],
"Situation": {
"ForAnyValue:StringEquals": {
"aws:CalledVia": "s3-object-lambda.amazonaws.com"
}
}
}
]
}The S3 bucket wants to permit entry to the supporting entry level. I choose the bucket and replace the coverage within the Permissions tab:
{
"Model": "2012-10-17",
"Assertion": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "*"
},
"Action": "*",
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET",
"arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET/*"
],
"Situation": {
"StringEquals": {
"s3:DataAccessPointAccount": "ACCOUNT"
}
}
}
]
}Lastly, CloudFront wants to have the ability to invoke the Lambda operate. Within the Lambda console, I select the Lambda operate utilized by S3 Object Lambda, after which, within the Configuration tab, I select Permissions. Within the Useful resource-based coverage statements part, I select Add permissions and choose AWS Account. I enter a novel Assertion ID. Then, I enter cloudfront.amazonaws.com as Principal and choose lambda:InvokeFunction from the Motion dropdown and Save. We’re working to simplify this step sooner or later. I’ll replace this put up when that’s obtainable.
Testing the CloudFront Distribution
When the distribution has been deployed, I take a look at that the setup is working with the identical pattern file I used earlier than. Within the CloudFront console, I choose the distribution and duplicate the Distribution area title. I can use the browser and enter https://DISTRIBUTION_DOMAIN_NAME/s3.txt within the navigation bar to ship a request to CloudFront and get the file processed by S3 Object Lambda. To shortly get all the information, I take advantage of curl with the -i choice to see the HTTP standing and the headers within the response:
It really works! As anticipated, the content material processed by the Lambda operate is all uppercase. As a result of that is the primary invocation for the distribution, it has not been returned from the cache (x-cache: Miss from cloudfront). The request went via S3 Object Lambda to course of the file utilizing the Lambda operate I supplied.
Let’s strive the identical request once more:
This time the content material is returned from the CloudFront cache (x-cache: Hit from cloudfront), and there was no additional processing by S3 Object Lambda. By utilizing S3 Object Lambda because the origin, the CloudFront distribution serves content material that has been processed by a Lambda operate and might be cached to scale back latency and optimize prices.
Resizing Photographs Utilizing S3 Object Lambda and CloudFront
As I discussed in the beginning of this put up, one of many use instances that may be applied utilizing S3 Object Lambda and CloudFront is picture transformation. Let’s create a CloudFront distribution that may dynamically resize a picture by passing the specified width and peak as question parameters (w and h respectively). For instance:
For this setup to work, I have to make two modifications to the CloudFront distribution. First, I create a brand new cache coverage to incorporate question parameters within the cache key. Within the CloudFront console, I select Insurance policies within the navigation pane. Within the Cache tab, I select Create cache coverage. Then, I enter a reputation for the cache coverage.
Within the Question settings of the Cache key settings, I choose the choice to Embrace the next question parameters and add w (for the width) and h (for the peak).
Then, within the Behaviors tab of the distribution, I choose the default habits and select Edit.
There, I replace the Cache key and origin requests part:
- Within the Cache coverage, I take advantage of the brand new cache coverage to incorporate the
wandhquestion parameters within the cache key. - Within the Origin request coverage, use the
AllViewerExceptHostHeadermanaged coverage to ahead question parameters to the origin.
Now I can replace the Lambda operate code. To resize photos, this operate makes use of the Pillow module that must be packaged with the operate when it’s uploaded to Lambda. You possibly can deploy the operate utilizing a software just like the AWS SAM CLI or the AWS CDK. In comparison with the earlier instance, this operate additionally handles and returns HTTP errors, equivalent to when content material will not be discovered within the bucket.
import io
import boto3
from urllib.request import urlopen, HTTPError
from PIL import Picture
from urllib.parse import urlparse, parse_qs
s3 = boto3.consumer('s3')
def lambda_handler(occasion, context):
print(occasion)
object_get_context = occasion['getObjectContext']
request_route = object_get_context['outputRoute']
request_token = object_get_context['outputToken']
s3_url = object_get_context['inputS3Url']
# Get object from S3
strive:
original_image = Picture.open(urlopen(s3_url))
besides HTTPError as err:
s3.write_get_object_response(
StatusCode=err.code,
ErrorCode="HTTPError",
ErrorMessage=err.cause,
RequestRoute=request_route,
RequestToken=request_token)
return
# Get width and peak from question parameters
user_request = occasion['userRequest']
url = user_request['url']
parsed_url = urlparse(url)
query_parameters = parse_qs(parsed_url.question)
strive:
width, peak = int(query_parameters['w'][0]), int(query_parameters['h'][0])
besides (KeyError, ValueError):
width, peak = 0, 0
# Rework object
if width > 0 and peak > 0:
transformed_image = original_image.resize((width, peak), Picture.ANTIALIAS)
else:
transformed_image = original_image
transformed_bytes = io.BytesIO()
transformed_image.save(transformed_bytes, format="JPEG")
# Write object again to S3 Object Lambda
s3.write_get_object_response(
Physique=transformed_bytes.getvalue(),
RequestRoute=request_route,
RequestToken=request_token)
returnI add an image I took of the Trevi Fountain within the supply bucket. To begin, I generate a small thumbnail (200 by 150 pixels).
https://DISTRIBUTION_DOMAIN_NAME/trevi-fountain.jpeg?w=200&h=150
Now, I ask for a barely bigger model (400 by 300 pixels):
It really works as anticipated. The primary invocation with a particular dimension is processed by the Lambda operate. Additional requests with the identical width and peak are served from the CloudFront cache.
Availability and Pricing
Aliases for S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors can be found as we speak in all business AWS Areas. There isn’t any extra price for aliases. With S3 Object Lambda, you pay for the Lambda compute and request expenses required to course of the information, and for the information S3 Object Lambda returns to your software. You additionally pay for the S3 requests which are invoked by your Lambda operate. For extra info, see Amazon S3 Pricing.
Aliases are actually robotically generated when an S3 Object Lambda Entry Level is created. For present S3 Object Lambda Entry Factors, aliases are robotically assigned and prepared to be used.
It’s now simpler to make use of S3 Object Lambda with present purposes, and aliases open many new potentialities. For instance, you need to use aliases with CloudFront to create an internet site that converts content material in Markdown to HTML, resizes and watermarks photos, or masks personally identifiable info (PII) from textual content, photos, and paperwork.
Customise content material to your finish customers utilizing S3 Object Lambda with CloudFront.
