Application Integration & Messaging
Decoupling services with queues, pub/sub, event buses, and real-time streaming — API Gateway, SQS, SNS, EventBridge, and Kinesis.
Amazon API Gateway
intermediate~2hA fully managed front door for your APIs — routing, throttling, authentication, and request/response transformation, without running your own API layer.
Amazon SQS: Standard and FIFO Queues
intermediate~2hA fully managed message queue for decoupling services — buffering work between producers and consumers so neither depends on the other being available at the same instant.
SNS & EventBridge: Pub/Sub and Event Buses
intermediate~2hFanning a single event out to many subscribers with SNS, and routing events between many producers and consumers based on content with EventBridge.
Kinesis Data Streams
advanced~2hReal-time, ordered, replayable data streaming at massive scale — for when you need many consumers reading the same continuous flow of events, not just one-time delivery.
Amazon MQ & MSK: Managed Message Brokers
intermediate~3hThe managed-broker alternative to SQS/SNS — Amazon MQ for lift-and-shift of existing ActiveMQ/RabbitMQ workloads, and MSK for fully-managed Apache Kafka.
SNS Subscription Filter Policies
intermediate~1.5hProUsing SNS filter policies to route a single topic's messages to the right subscribers based on message attributes, instead of broadcasting every message to every subscriber.
SQS Dead Letter Queues in Depth
intermediate~1.5hProA deep look at how SQS dead letter queues work under the hood — maxReceiveCount, redrive policies, inspecting and reprocessing failed messages, and alerting on DLQ depth as a production health signal.
