23. What’s the big deal with EventBridge

Eoin and Luciano continue their series about event services. In this episode, they chat about EventBridge and explore why this AWS service has such a great potential for event-based serverless applications. This episode presents some interesting examples of when and how to use EventBridge. It also covers all the different classes of events that you can manage with EventBridge: AWS events, third-party events and custom events. We discuss limits and pricing and, finally, we show how things can go wrong and how much you can end up paying for it. We conclude the episode with some tips and resources to avoid shooting yourself in the foot and get good observability when using EventBridge.In this episode, we mentioned the following resources: - Our previous episode about all things SQS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svoA-ds8-8c - Our introductory episode about what services you should use for events: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG7uhkKftoY - List of AWS services that can trigger EventBridge events: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/userguide/eb-service-event.html - An example of how to make HTTP calls directly from EventBridge (Sheen Brisals): https://medium.com/lego-engineering/amazon-eventbridge-api-destinations-demystified-part-i-23fa70d9a04d - How to test when using EventBridge (by Paul Swail): https://serverlessfirst.com/eventbridge-testing-guide/ - Eventbridge CLI tool: https://github.com/spezam/eventbridge-cli - Lumigo CLI: https://github.com/lumigo-io/lumigo-CLI#lumigo-cli-tail-eventbridge-bus - EventBridge Atlas: https://eventbridge-atlas.netlify.app/ - EventBridge Canon: https://eventbridge-canon.netlify.app/ - Accelerate Serverless Adoption with EventBridge (talk by Sheen Brisals): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTZpoSGOSOI - Series of Articles by Sheen Brisals on EventBridge: https://sbrisals.medium.com/table-of-contents-set-pieces-16c1ca1ecb33 This episode is also available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/AWSBites You can listen to AWS Bites wherever you get your podcasts: - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/aws-bites/id1585489017 - Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy82YTMzMTJhMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw== - Breaker: https://www.breaker.audio/aws-bites - RSS: ​​https://anchor.fm/s/6a3312a0/podcast/rss Do you have any AWS questions you would like us to address?
