Building Event-Driven Applications With Amazon EventBridge (Includes Labs)

Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus that makes it easy to connect applications together using data from customers applications, integrated software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, and AWS services. You can use this service to build event-driven apps and route events from AWS services, or third-party apps or custom events that get created.
