I would really like to avoid adding binary files (the .png) to the repo. Does it make sense to move them to a central repo? Perhaps something like elastic/apm-artifacts, and then pull them into the docs from there?

134KB isn't a lot, but every binary file will be downloaded in every clone from now to the end of time, and if the image changes git can't diff them so now both versions will be included in the repo forever.

If there's another way to include the image I'm up for it. @bmorelli25 do you have an idea what we could do instead of uploading the image in this repo and embedding it in the docs?

We're already including a lot of content in these docs from elastic/aws-apm-lambda/docs. I don't see why we can't store the images there too. I'll add them to elastic/apm-aws-lambda#158, cherry-pick to 8.1, and rerun the build.

Honestly it's fine if we want to store them here. I just have worked on projects with very large clone times due to binary files and want to at least discuss alternatives before we merge them.

These docs are excellent! Love the tabbed sections for the various ways lambda can be configured!
