EC2 Image Builder now supports invoking Lambda functions and executing Step Functions state machine through image workflows. These capabilities enable you to incorporate complex, multi-step workflows and custom validation logic into your image creation process, providing greater flexibility and control over how your images are built and validated.
Prior to this launch, customers had to write custom code and implement multi-step workarounds to integrate Lambda or Step Functions within image workflows. This was a cumbersome process that was time-consuming to set up, difficult to maintain, and prone to errors. With these new capabilities, you can now seamlessly invoke Lambda functions to execute custom logic or orchestrate Step Functions state machines for complex, multi-step workflows. This native integration allows you to implement use cases such as custom compliance validation, sending custom notifications, multi-stage security testing —all within your Image Builder workflow.
These capabilities are available to all customers at no additional costs, in all AWS regions including AWS China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, AWS China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD, and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
You can get started from the EC2 Image Builder Console, CLI, API, CloudFormation, or CDK, and learn more in the EC2 Image Builder documentation.
