Cloud-Based Enterprise Pub-Sub Messaging
Use pub-sub messaging semantics such as Topics, Publish, and Subscribe to send messages between your de-coupled cloud-based apps.
Get started with 3 API calls and avoid building or hosting a complex messaging fabric and costly license or maintenance fees.
Send individual messages to destinations or fan-out messages to large groups using Topics.
Use SNS to deliver messages from AWS services such as CloudWatch, S3, Lambda, Glacier, CloudTrail, and SES to other AWS services such as SQS, Lambda, or HTTP endpoints.
Use AWS Lambda to selectively route messages to a subset of destinations or manipulate message content before delivery.
With SNS Topics your effective cost of sending identical messages to multiple recipients is lower than sending individual messages to each recipient.
