AWS Lambda Function and Lambda Layers

Lambda with Lambda Layers

Create a Lambda Function that has a Lambda Layer added to it

This pattern deploys a Lambda Function and attaches a Lambda Layer to it.
The function imports `mysql-connector-python` package that is provisioned using Lambda Layer and prints a list of files in `/opt` directory. `/opt` is a location where Lambda Layers attach content.
Using layers reduces the size of uploaded deployment archives and makes it faster to deploy your code.
