Lambda Tools

Currently the only tool is called WhipIt. It is meant to be installed in a lambda that is run by CloudWatch Events and run every 30 minutes or so. When it runs, it invokes the lambdas in its target list but short circuits the logic of the lambda. This keeps the lambda warm and helps to avoid, but does not eliminate, cold starts.

class AwAws.Lambda.tools.LambdaTools(client=None)

whipit()

this function can be used to keep lambdas warm
