Lightsail Auto Snapshots
An AWS Lambda function to automatically snapshot all Amazon Lightsail virtual private servers in an account and retain them for a given number of days. The included AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) template will upload and create the function, grant it the permissions necessary to list your Lightsail instances and snapshots and create and delete snapshots, and schedule it to run once per day.
Usage
To install this function, ensure you have the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) installed and configured.
Run the deploy script and optionally specify the region to install the function and the number of days for which snapshots should be retained. By default, the script will install the function into your default configured region and retain snapshots for 30 days.
