## Scaling AWS Lambda for Large Data Exports: Parallelization and Chunked Uploads
Speaker: Alexandra Konovalova
Duration: 20 minutes
Technical level: Level 200 – Advanced usersAWS Lambda is a powerful building block for modern data engineering, but processing large datasets often exposes limitations in execution time, memory, and ephemeral storage.

You’ll learn how the Step Functions Map state enables parallel processing across multiple database tables while efficiently streaming results to Amazon S3. The session also covers architectural patterns, implementation best practices, and lessons learned from building high-performance serverless data pipelines.
