Lambda Deployment Packaging
Zip packages are limited to 250 MB unzipped (plus up to five layers sharing that budget) and get the fastest Init; container images allow 10 GB, reuse existing OCI toolchains, and are cached aggressively so their cold-start penalty is modest. Choose zip for small, fast functions and images for heavy dependency stacks like ML runtimes.
