Amazon SNS

I used to use AWS SNS for sending text messages for transactional messages. Now I use SNS for sending alerts from our dashboards. SNS is very versatile and there are a lot of features you can use as well as benefits of setting up the subscriptions from the back end. We use Terragrunt to easily upload all our data

We use it for many purposes : Mainly to do monitoring and alerting. For instance we use it to send alerts via Microsoft Teams using Webhooks. For others scenarios we use it to send messages to some specific APIs we have.

The main use for Amazon Simple Notification Service within our organization is to allow our different products communicate in a subscription based communication paradigm. We are able to share state information across servers in a notification style which reduces the number of consecutive pulls or checking a common resource to allow our infrastructure to scale at need.

It is basically used as a filtration system by some of our clients that sell on Amazon. The system allows them to subscribe to specific types of Amazon messages that are applicable to them and then sends them notifications for those relatable messages. It helps save them time by cutting through all of the unnecessary, unapplicable information and gets them what they need in a quick and easy process.

We use the simple notification services extensively for team in Client Service to Development and Operations, as events are collected and metrics evaluated across the entire VPC. Amazon simple notification is primarily used with the DevOps staff for managing activity by cloudwatch events, to be sent via configured topics for SNS to all department members.

We have used Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) for creating applications which make use of events. With help of SNS it is easy to track events with their timestamp when they originated and how they were used. It is very essential and it makes it easy to use as SNS can help in logging the inbound and outbound events.

Amazon SNS is being used to deliver notifications to users. We started with custom software where users could subscribe to certain topics and get information in a timely manner. It solved the problem of trying to keep track of everything that is going on around using different forms of communication. This way, we centralized it.

Amazon SNS is being used as part of a queuing solution for our company. It is a simple, highly available queuing backend with libraries for many languages, allowing interoperability between various teams. It provides an efficient fan-out service for distributing work and communicating requests between services. It provides convenient endpoints for email and web services.

It is used by the application. We use it mostly to send SMS to our users!

Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) is being used to send SMS notifications to specific employees within the organization in case of any event via an alert management system. Amazon SNS is being used by the Central System monitoring Team to get a timely notification on their mobile devices about any issue in the system. Before using SNS, we have to make a call to each employee manually to notify them about the issue in case we need to inform them during out of office hours.

Amazon SNS is used to communicate simple notifications across different scenarios, using emails and SMS. It addresses the problem of notifying different states for example in cloud instances, so we don't need to check each one manually. Also, it is very easy to integrate into your workflow, as it communicates fluently with other AWS Services.

My team is using SNS as a way to pass messages back and forth between our billing systems and end user products. We send account/subscription messages on create and update and our products send usage messages that we subscribe to via SQS and process usage into our billing system.

We use it as part of our mobile learning app to send transactional messages to learners to start a module. It allows us to reach learners without an email address and reduces user friction of needing to remember a login and password, or 'not getting round' to the email notification to begin their learning.

We use Amazon SNS to push notifications to customers for previously searched hotels through email and messages.

Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) is used across the organization. We are using for APNS and topic subscription. It is also used as a centralized messaging system in our organization to send SMS, Emails, Push Notifications, etc.

We use Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) within several serverless applications to create and manage both human-read and service-read notifications as a part of our internal automation workflows. One of these applications uses Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) notifications to notify a dashboard interface when there are status changes in a queue process that places ad campaign listings on different platforms. Success and failure messages can be triggered and display in realtime.

We use SNS to send notifications across services to communicate with each other. We use SNS across all the departments which are consuming AWS. We solve multiple problems through SNS as mentioned below:

1. To notify the stack holder when build and deployment is completed.
2. To check and report environment health.
3. Call consumers when all async producers finish their jobs.
4. To send Push notifications.

Amazon SNS is an incredibly useful service. In my previous organizations, we used it as an easy way to get a notification service set up with our users without having to manage any servers or additional resources. The messages are incredibly inexpensive and cost close to nothing. I only know that it was being used in my sector for sure, however, I am confident that it was being used all across the organization as well. It was the only available service that could solve our email/SMS notification needs with available scaling, cost savings, and ease of use for our employees and customers.

It is used within our team(Mobile/Iot Development) to notify us developers in case anything within our AWS account needs attention. The primary target of most of our notifications is an email to the developers, whereas sometimes we do trigger Lambda functions using SNS.

The engineering and data teams at my organization use Amazon SNS for two purposes. The first is to create simple notifications for non-emergency alerts. It is easy to configure a CloudWatch alarm, create an SNS topic, and subscribe some email addresses to the topic. The second purpose is to use topics and pub/sub messaging to decouple micro-services. AWS Lambda has an SNS trigger; it is easy to build functions and invoke them when events are published.

Almost on all projects where we use AWS services, we use Amazon SNS. It helps us to respond faster for some APIs, or for processes that do not need to be asynchronous.

Amazon SNS is being used by my organization for all push notification services for both iOS and Android. We have been using it for all marketing-related push notifications as well as trigger-based push notifications in order to inform our users of promotions we're running or information about their upcoming bus trip they have planned.
