I want to create websocket api using amazon API gateway. Is it possible to configure it such a way that can transfer data from/to EC2 instances? I know with lambda function it is possible but instead of lambda, is it possible to leverage EC2 server a backend for WebSocket API implementation?

WebSocket API implementation using API Gateway has a integration support for HTTP. So you can expose your HTTP endpoint on EC2 server, then integrate this with your WebSocket API implementation with EC2 as a backend(integration type). For details, refer to below AWS doc: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/apigateway-websocket-api-integration-requests.html
in my case, it would be AWS service. we will use EC2 as aws service in backend. we dont have HTTP endpoint. there are many documents and tutorials available but 99% of those are using lambda function. I am trying to integrate with EC2.
