AWS Certified Developer Associate DVA-C02 Practice Question

The correct approach is to utilize layers, a feature provided by the serverless function service, which allows dependencies to be packaged separately from the function code. This method promotes consistent deployment across different environments and makes it easier to update or modify the shared components without redeploying the entire function codebase. Inserting the dependencies directly into the function's deployment package would not provide the separate management and versioning that layers offer. Incorporating the library code within the function script lacks modularity and complicates updates. Using a configuration management service, which is typically meant for runtime configuration and not for binary dependencies, is not the right tool for managing external library versions.
