Hello, Lambda does not have shared memory device. You can have a look on these:

When deploying applications on AWS Lambda, one of the common limitations is the absence of shared memory for concurrent processes. If you need to implement parallel processing in your Lambda functions, you might face challenges due to this constraint. The lambda-multiprocessing library can help address this issue by providing a way to leverage Python's multiprocessing module in the Lambda environment.
