• Event-Driven Architecture on AWS

  Event Routers: Services like Amazon SQS (A managed message queuing), Amazon SNS (A pub/sub messaging), AWS Step Functions (An orchestrate serverless workflows) and Amazon EventBridge (A serverless event bus) act as event routers, establishing the paths and flow for messages within the architecture.

• Serverless Site Health Check Notification System

  This blog details how you can use some key serverless components from AWS like Amazon Eventbridge, AWS Lambda, and Simple Notification Service to setup a system that will monitor your site (which can be running anywhere) and send emails, text messages, slack messages, and more when the reachability status of your site changes. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• WebSockets, gRPC, MQTT, and SSE - Which Real-Time Notification Method Is For You?

  Compare this to a stateless communication mechanism like Amazon SNS or other Webhook implementation where the connection is not persistent and the communication is one-way.

• How do people send system messages to (human) clients these days?

  When building apps/websites I often need to send messages to the business owner / admin. The messages range from almost logging type messages such as - "Payment failed for Order 123, please manually process the transaction" to generic contact forms on a website: - "FirstName LastName sent a message with the following text: something something something" My knowledge is rather old and currently I just send email... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• how I got customer onboarding right

  Sendgrid, Mailgun, or Postmark are great solutions if you have a need for transactional emails that are technical. I still prefer using Customer.io for this need. If you’re unsure what transactional emails are, check out this guide. Source: 8 months ago
