Is possible to change lambda timeout container?

Question

Hey, I'm trying to avoid cold start in my lambda functions.  
Is there any way to control the container timeout?   
Can I reserve 1 or 10 containers for a longer period of time? Even if this will be an extra charge.  
  
I just want to know if is anything I can do to control container timeout, besides keeping it warm with schedule requests.

Answer

Hello,  
  
Unfortunately, as of now, it is not possible to control the container timeout and reserve it for a longer time. I see that you are already following the best practices of keeping lambda functions warm using scheduled requests. Thank you for the feedback. I will forward this feature request to the internal team. However, we will not be able to provide an ETA for when/if this feature will be released.
