Using AWS Lambda to run Python script, how can I save data?

Question

I have a script that gathers data from an API, and running this manually on my local machine I can save the data to a CSV or SQLite .db file.  
  
If I put this on AWS lambda how can I store and retrieve data?

Accepted Answer

with aws lambda you can use database like dynamo db which is not sql database and from there you can download csv file.  
  
with lambda to dynamo bd integration is so easy lambda is serverless and dynamo db is nosql database.  
  
so you can save data into dynamo db also you can use RDS(Mysql) and use man other service but best way will be dynamo db.

Answer

To see an example of a Lambda function that reads from DynamoDB, install the [AWS SAM CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/install-sam-cli.html), then do `sam init` and choose option 7 `7 - Serverless API`.

Answer

You can also save files to S3 from a lambda function - see [sample code here](https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples/blob/main/python/example_code/s3/s3_basics/object_wrapper.py)
