-For Lambda functions that use the Node.js runtime, a dependency can be any Node.js module. The Node.js runtime includes a number of common libraries, as well as a version of the AWS SDK for JavaScript. The `nodejs16.x` Lambda runtime includes version 2.x of the SDK. Runtime versions `nodejs18.x` and later include version 3 of the SDK. To use version 2 of the SDK with runtime versions `nodejs18.x` and later, add the SDK to your .zip file deployment package. If your chosen runtime includes the version of the SDK you are using, you don't need to include the SDK library in your .zip file. To find out which version of the SDK is included in the runtime you're using, see [Runtime-included SDK versions](./lambda-nodejs.html#nodejs-sdk-included).
