+# Multi-Source API Example
+
+This example demonstrates a Lambda function that handles requests from both Application Load Balancer (ALB) and API Gateway V2 by accepting a raw `ByteBuffer` and decoding the appropriate event type.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Lambda handler receives events as `ByteBuffer` and attempts to decode them as either:
+- `ALBTargetGroupRequest` - for requests from Application Load Balancer
+- `APIGatewayV2Request` - for requests from API Gateway V2
+
+Based on the successfully decoded type, it returns an appropriate response.
+
+## Building
+
+```bash
+swift package archive --allow-network-connections docker
+```
+
+## Deploying
+
+Deploy using SAM:
+
+```bash
+sam deploy \
+  --resolve-s3 \
+  --template-file template.yaml \
+  --stack-name MultiSourceAPI \
+  --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+After deployment, SAM will output two URLs:
+
+### Test API Gateway V2:
+```bash
+curl https://<api-id>.execute-api.<region>.amazonaws.com/apigw/test
+```
+
+Expected response:
+```json
+{"source":"APIGatewayV2","path":"/apigw/test"}
+```
+
+### Test ALB:
+```bash
+curl http://<alb-dns-name>/alb/test
+```
+
+Expected response:
+```json
+{"source":"ALB","path":"/alb/test"}
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+The handler uses Swift's type-safe decoding to determine the event source:
+
+1. Receives raw `ByteBuffer` event
+2. Attempts to decode as `ALBTargetGroupRequest`
+3. If that fails, attempts to decode as `APIGatewayV2Request`
+4. Returns appropriate response based on the decoded type
+5. Throws error if neither decoding succeeds
+
+This pattern is useful when a single Lambda function needs to handle requests from multiple sources.
