-In Lambda, **functions** are the fundamental building blocks you use to create applications. A Lambda function is a piece of code that runs in response to events, such as a user clicking a button on a website or a file being uploaded to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket. With durable functions, your code can pause execution between steps, maintaining state automatically, making them ideal for long-running workflows like order processing or content moderation You can think of a function as a kind of self-contained program with the following properties.

-Stream and queue services like Amazon Kinesis or Amazon SQS, Lambda use an [event source mapping](./invocation-eventsourcemapping.html) instead of a standard trigger. Event source mappings poll the source for new data, batch records together, and then invoke your function with the batched events.
