AWS Lambda processes values by synchronously invoking an AWS Lambda function and returning the payload.

The average latency of synchronously invoking a function is 10s of milliseconds, but latency can take 100s to 1000s of milliseconds depending on the function and may have significant impact on end-to-end data processing latency. If Substation is running in AWS Lambda with Kinesis, then this latency can be mitigated by increasing the parallelization factor of the Lambda.
