I'm using the following setup for one of my sites:

Client -> post -> API Gateway -> AWS Lambda -> upload JSON to S3

Client -> get -> S3

Works pretty good!



Is it cost effective? I mean roughly.


Very very cheap, as long as you're writing your lambdas as performant as possible we've costed our app at ~2c / user / month with heavy api / database / lambda usage


It seems you are estimating the costs per user. I think an estimation per request and perhaps compared with raw EC2 servers would make more sense. Anyway, it's encouraging to hear that's cost effective. My experience with managed/ server-less platforms is quite bad in terms of costs.
