piyushcoon Using AWS lambda for cheap S3 content processing

Excellent post. I wanted to generate thumb images for photos uploaded to s3 bucket using aws Lambda, could successfully implement it.

but found one issue, that many here might not be aware of, S3 bucket and Lambda function should be in same aws region.

Unfortunately, my s3 bucket is in southeast-ap, and aws lambda is not available in this region. couldn't go live today. will have to copy bucket to another region to use it.

hope this helps. thanks.
