Hi,
My use case is to continue using the functionbeat itself, but since the go1.x runtime will not be supported in AWS lambda, can I create a new build with the gov2 version? On that,
1. Will it be too much of effort doing it?
2. Can I get some help on how to create the "functionbeat-aws" build?

Functionbeat is end-of-life per; [Functionbeat Reference [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/functionbeat/current/index.html). Have you looked at switching to [Elastic Serverless Forwarder for AWS | Elastic Serverless Forwarder Guide | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/esf/current/aws-elastic-serverless-forwarder.html)?

@BenB196 thanks for a quick reply. I understand the support has ended for functionbeat.
I was still trying to explore if we can make use of functionbeat itself. So if you can help me with the below questions:
1. Will it be too much of effort upgrading go version in the functionbeat build?
2. Can I get some help on how to create the "functionbeat-aws" build?

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with functionbeat, so I'll defer to potentially anyone else on here who might be able to assist.
