This used to be harder -- you would set the lambda up for the go language runtime, but send your own statically linked binary with a special name instead of a compiled go artifact. But now AWS offers Custom Runtimes[0]. So you can set up the infra using some convenient tool such as AWS CloudFormation templates, terraform, or ansible, and then deploy your custom runtime c/c++ build from there (again, using ansible or AWS CLI or whatever). If you're using rust, there are now ways to make that work, including plugins for the popular "serverless" (sls) framework to deploy rust builds[1] [0] https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/runtimes-custom...
