JAWS REST API: Multi-Region/Cross-Region Replication (Out of the box?) about serverless

using API gateway to pass context information into the lambda is huge, I'd like to see how that works but the link you provide is behind aws auth.

From the AWS Developer Forums...

      Hi, 

      The following context variables are now available in mapping templates. Not the exact solution you wer looking for, but some of that information will be available now. The main part missing would be the full hostname part, but the apiId, stage, and resourcePath are useful for determining path that calls the Lambda function.

      $context.stage
      $context.apiId
      $context.resourcePath
      $context.resourceId
      $context.httpMethod

      This will be documented in greater detail soon. 

      Thanks,
      Jack

Great, now we just need to find a way to tie that into your middle-ware and aws config, I'll take a crack at it later today. Thanks for reaching out to the aws team btw, seem like they have been really supportive.

Update 8/13/15:

We’re currently working on a document that outlines the specifications for JAWS v1.0.0.

A proposed resolution to this issue in particular is included in that document.

Today or tomorrow, we will share the document for everyone to comment on because your feedback is essential.

Hi @ac360 I am wondering where the document is?

People mentioned it could be solvable by setting up route53 latency routing with API Gateway - https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=220478. However, I could not find SNI setting in Cloudformation for Route53.

Would love to know your opinions.

Looks like this is now possible with Lambda@Edge http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/lambda-edge.html
