The problem is that your local numpy and pandas are compiled for the local machine's architecture. Since AWS Lambda uses custom Linux, they are probably not compatible.

So if you want to use them, you have two choices:

  • Compile dependencies on EC2 instance which uses the same Amazon Linux version as AWS Lambda and create a deployment package.

  • Use one of the precompiled packages from here

You can get a better understanding of the Lambda function from the AWS Course.

Looks to me as thought those packages are for python2.7?
Yes, these packages are for Python 2.7
