May 1, 2025May 2025 performance highlights for aws/modern-data-architecture-accelerator: Delivered focused improvements to Lambda layer packaging and deployment orchestration. Implemented Lambda Layers Python Runtime Build Enhancements by refactoring the Boto3 layer construction and introducing a new Python requirements construct, enabling build-time selection of Python runtimes and explicit Python version specification. Fixed a deployment inefficiency by implementing a single-pass Python dependencies installation during domain deployment; removed the redundant this.installPython() call from deployDomain so dependencies install once during global deployment. These changes reduce build and deployment time, minimize duplicate work, and improve reliability across environments.
