no-default-timeout

No Functions Have Timeout Configuration Left as Default (no-default-timeout)

Lambda Function timeout is configurable and should be configured for the use-case. This can impact timeout errors, running costs and security (e.g. "Denial of Wallet"). The default is 3 seconds in AWS, but 6 with the Serverless Framework. The maximum allowed value is 900 seconds.

< 5 seconds is generally suitable for API endpoints.

Note: API Gateway has a limit of 29 seconds.

Suggested Actions:

  • Look into your CloudWatch Logs for the Lambda function to find Duration (more information)
REPORT RequestId: 3604209a-e9a3-11e6-939a-754dd98c7be3  Duration: 12.34 ms  Billed Duration: 100 ms Memory Size: 128 MB Max Memory Used: 18 MB
  • Power-tune using aws-lambda-power-tuning

    Note: Any increase in memory size triggers an equivalent increase in CPU available to your function, which can be useful in lowering timeout.
