I am using this guide on the AWS deeplens. I am experimenting with the code and at one point it stopped working for the second standalone lambda function. At some point, the code started getting the exception and I only recently noticed it.
Here is the code in question:
def sendMessageToIoTTopic(iotMessage):
# this is a default topic if its not specified in the lambda envirionment
topicName = "worker-safety"
if "iot_topic" in os.environ:
topicName = os.environ['iot_topic']
print("Send message to topic: " + topicName + " before")
iotClient = boto3.client('iot-data', region_name='us-east-1')
response = iotClient.publish(
topic=topicName,
qos=1,
payload=json.dumps(iotMessage)
)
print("Send message to topic: " + topicName + "after")
print("using this topic **{}** response is {}".format(topicName, response))
The guide says to modify the default timeout from 1 second to 3 seconds. Here is the log for this code with a 3 second timeout.

Adjusting the timeout for the lambda function from 3 seconds to 15 seconds allows us to see the timeout error in detail. It shows that it is an SSL error.
This is the resultant log with more info:
