EventBridge

What is AWS EventBridge?

AWS EventBridge is a serverless event bus service that acts as a central nervous system for
your event-driven applications. It allows you to connect and coordinate different parts of your
infrastructure, including:

• AWS services: Amazon S3, DynamoDB, Lambda, SNS, SQS, and many more.
• SaaS applications: Integrate with popular third-party applications like Zendesk,
Salesforce, and others.
• Custom applications: Build event-driven architectures using your own event sources.

Key Features of EventBridge:

• Event Buses: Choose from default event buses for AWS services or create custom
buses for your applications.
• Event Rules with Powerful Filtering: Define rules to match specific event attributes
and route them to the appropriate targets.
• Schema Registry: Automatically discovers and stores the structure (schema) of your
events, making them easier to understand and use. Plus, it provides code bindings for
various programming languages.
• Built-in Integrations: Seamlessly connect EventBridge with a vast array of AWS
services and third-party applications, eliminating the need for custom integrations.
• Cross-Account Delivery: Send events across different AWS accounts, enabling
efficient communication within multi-account setups.
• Custom Event Sources: Create your own events and event sources to cater to unique
application requirements.

Benefits of Using EventBridge:

• Serverless Architecture: No server management required. EventBridge scales


automatically to handle your event traffic.
• Effortless Use: A user-friendly console and APIs simplify building and managing
event-driven applications.
• Highly Reliable: Ensures events are delivered securely and consistently, even with
high volumes.
• Cost-Effective: Pay-per-use model makes it economical for applications of any size.
• Enhanced Security: Supports fine-grained access control and integrates with AWS
IAM for comprehensive security.

Use Cases for EventBridge:

• Microservices Integration: Connect loosely coupled microservices, SaaS


applications, and AWS services to build agile and scalable systems.
• Real-Time Data Processing: Route events to services like AWS Lambda and Kinesis
for real-time processing of data streams.
• Automated Monitoring and Operations: Automate responses to changes in your
AWS environment, such as auto-scaling or reacting to configuration updates.
• Cross-Account Workflows: Share events and trigger workflows across different
AWS accounts, streamlining multi-account strategies.
• Custom Event-Driven Applications: Develop applications that react to specific
events relevant to your business logic.

Key Advantages of EventBridge:

• Simplified Event-Driven Architectures: Focus on your application logic while


EventBridge takes care of event routing and delivery.
• Unmatched Flexibility: Supports various event sources and targets, providing a wide
range of integration options for diverse use cases.
• Improved Developer Efficiency: Schema registry and code bindings accelerate
developer understanding and utilization of event data.
• Scalability and Reliability: Automatic scaling ensures your application remains
responsive and reliable under high event volumes.
• Seamless Integrations: Effortlessly connect with AWS services and external
applications, reducing complexity when building interconnected systems.
Additional Details:

• Event Replay: Replay past events for debugging and testing purposes.
• Monitoring and Logging: Integrate with CloudWatch to monitor and log event
traffic for efficient troubleshooting.

Steps to Create an EventBridge Schedule:

This example shows creating an EventBridge schedule that directly invokes an AWS
Lambda function:

1. Access the AWS Management Console

• Login to the AWS Management Console and search for "EventBridge."

2. Create a Schedule

• In the EventBridge dashboard, navigate to the "Schedules" section (it might be under
"More" depending on your console view). Click "Create schedule."

3. Configure the Schedule

• Name and Description (Optional): Give your schedule a clear name and optionally
add a description for reference.
• Schedule Expression:
o Fixed Rate: Choose this for simple intervals (e.g., every 15 minutes). Specify
the interval value and time unit (minutes, hours, days).
o Cron Expression: Use this for more complex scheduling needs (refer to AWS
documentation for syntax: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elemental-
cl3/latest/apireference/channel-scheduling-cron-syntax-summary.html).

Example Cron Expression (Runs every Monday at 8 AM UTC):

cron(0 8 ? * MON *)

4. Configure Target

• Target Type: Choose "AWS Lambda function."


• Lambda Function: Select the specific Lambda function you want to invoke on this
schedule.
• Input (Optional): You can optionally provide static input data to be passed to the
Lambda function during invocation.

5. Review and Create

• Review Settings: Double-check your schedule name, expression, target function, and
any provided input.
• Create Schedule: Click "Create" to finalize the schedule creation.
