NPM Package containing utility functions for interaction with AWS services from within other AWS services.

If used on more than one lambda, consider adding this package to an AWS Layer and adding that layer to your Lambda function, instead of adding this package to each lambda individually. This will reduce bundlesize and make versioning much easier.
