createEventSourceMapping
Creates a mapping between an event source and an Lambda function. Lambda reads items from the event source and invokes the function.
For details about how to configure different event sources, see the following topics.
The following error handling options are available only for stream sources (DynamoDB and Kinesis):
BisectBatchOnFunctionError
– If the function returns an error, split the batch in two and retry.DestinationConfig
– Send discarded records to an Amazon SQS queue or Amazon SNS topic.MaximumRecordAgeInSeconds
– Discard records older than the specified age. The default value is infinite (-1). When set to infinite (-1), failed records are retried until the record expiresMaximumRetryAttempts
– Discard records after the specified number of retries. The default value is infinite (-1). When set to infinite (-1), failed records are retried until the record expires.ParallelizationFactor
– Process multiple batches from each shard concurrently.
