Executor Lambda Function

Lambda function implementing an executor pattern to run scheduled tasks via CloudWatch Events/EventBridge rules. Each rule's name maps directly to its corresponding function, enabling independent scheduling.

Architecture

• CloudWatch Events/EventBridge rules trigger the Lambda
• Rule name pattern: <function_name>
• Function mapping handled by Executor class
• Modular design for easy addition of new functions

Setup

Requirements

• AWS Lambda
• CloudWatch Events/EventBridge
• AWS Secrets Manager for credentials
• Python 3.9+

Environment Variables

• SECRET_ARN: Secrets Manager ARN containing required credentials

Implementation

Adding New Functions

1. Add function to Executor class
2. Map function in function_mapping dictionary
3. Create corresponding CloudWatch rule which matches the function name and a schedule
4. Add rule as trigger to executor lambda function
