I have a simple problem. I want to create some kind of pipeline. First we have a function that does a request to some external resource (that answer takes a long time - sometimes is more than 60 seconds!). So first function just does a request and go down. And second function handles response of this function.
I currently try to run one lambda which do request, and second which handle response of this request.
I found a repo that has implementation of lambda messaging which is close to my idea https://github.com/pj0616/serverless-async-lambda-api. In this approach we dont wait for the results.
I was trying to run code from here too: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/nodejs-handler.html, but it doesnt wait asynchronously for response.
Is it possible to create this flow? Maybe with lambda or step functions?
Below I put a diagram that shows what I'm trying to do.
