AWS Lambda Recursive Loop Detection Now Available Everywhere

AWS Lambda's recursive loop detection feature—enabled by default—is now rolling out across all commercial AWS Regions to automatically catch and stop those nasty infinite loops between Lambda and services like S3, SQS, and SNS. No more surprise bills from misconfigured event sources; Lambda will halt the loop and ping you via AWS Health Dashboard with troubleshooting tips, though you can disable it if you're intentionally looping.
