Cortex is a highly-scalable serverless computing platform that is up to 90% less expensive than AWS Lambda. It is designed for scaling compute-intensive realtime, async, and batch workloads on your AWS account. Organizations worldwide use Cortex to scale microservices, data processing, machine learning, and other applications in production.
