aws-eventbridge

An event-driven architecture on AWS routes decoupled service communication through custom event buses and rules. Using EventBridge, you filter event patterns and route them to targets like Lambda, SQS, or Step Functions to automate workflows without point-to-point integrations.

The best way to route AWS events to Step Functions and SQS is by defining EventBridge rules with advanced filtering patterns. These rules evaluate incoming event payloads and dispatch matching events directly to your configured targets for asynchronous processing.

Yes, you can generate producer code snippets for publishing events to a custom event bus. This capability allows your applications to programmatically put events onto the bus, ensuring payloads match the expected structure before routing to targets.

Yes, EventBridge supports a schema registry for event validation and discoverability. By defining and registering event schemas, you ensure that producers generate correctly structured events and consumers can automatically discover the event structure.

You should use EventBridge Pipes instead of rules when you need point-to-point integrations for simplified workflows. Pipes directly connect supported sources to targets with optional filtering and enrichment, whereas rules evaluate events across an entire event bus.
