Automating AWS Lambda deployments using Bitbucket Pipelines and Bitbucket Pipes

This post introduces and demonstrates the use of Bitbucket Pipes, specifically the `atlassian/aws-lambda-deploy` pipe, to automate the deployment of AWS Lambda functions. It outlines the steps involved in creating a basic Lambda function, configuring AWS IAM credentials as repository variables, and defining a `bitbucket-pipelines.yml` file to package the function and deploy it using the pipe. The post highlights the advantages of Pipes, such as simplifying pipeline creation, abstracting complex workflows, and enabling semantic versioning for safer updates.
