Tag: response-streaming

With some creativity, we can use Lambda Response Streaming to dynamically show status updates, like the progress of long-running processes. And with proper TypeScript types and generator functions, we can write clean, dynamic content streaming Lambda with composable payload enrichers that will impress your work colleagues (if they are into this stuff).

Lambda Response Streaming allows sending incremental responses, but those response chunks can arrive long after you write them. They are buffered in a rather unexpected way, delaying all messages you stream. But there is a workaround to force the stream to flush.
