Composite Alarms​

Combining alarms - Amazon CloudWatch

CW composite alert to create complex alert. We can use operators like OR, AND and NOT. For example, if we want to trigger an alert when both CPU and DiskReadOnly breach their thresholds, we would need to create a composite alert. This involves using two metrics with an AND operator to ensure that both conditions are met before triggering the alert.

ALARM("django-slave-2-alarm-CPU-80%") OR
ALARM("learn-dbread-alarm-CPU-80%") OR
ALARM("django-prod-slave1-alarm-CPU-80%") OR
ALARM("prod-django-master-alarm-CPU-80%")

AWS Amplify​

Amplify UI - Build UI fast with Amplify on React

Amplify Documentation - AWS Amplify Documentation

To serve traffic, Amplify Hosting points to a CloudFront URL via a CNAME record. In the process of connecting an app to a custom domain, the Amplify console displays the CloudFront URL for the app. However, you cannot access your application directly using this CloudFront URL. It returns a 404 error. Your application resolves only using the Amplify app URL (for example, https://main.d5udybEXAMPLE.amplifyapp.com, or your custom domain (for example www.example.com).

Application Integeration​

1. AWS Step Functions​

Coordinate Distributed Applications

AWS Step Functions is a serverless function orchestrator that makes it easy to sequence AWS Lambda functions and multiple AWS services into business-critical applications. Through its visual interface, you can create and run a series of checkpointed and event-driven workflows that maintain the application state.The output of one step acts as an input to the next. Each step in your application executes in order, as defined by your business logic.

Orchestrating a series of individual serverless applications, managing retries, and debugging failures can be challenging. As your distributed applications become more complex, the complexity of managing them also grows. Step Functions automatically manages error handling, retry logic, and state.With its built-in operational controls, Step Functions manages sequencing, error handling, retry logic, and state, removing a significant operational burden from your team.

2. Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) - Managed Message Queues​

3. Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS)​

Pub/Sub, Mobile Push and SMS

Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) is a highly available, durable, secure, fully managed pub/sub messaging service that enables you to decouple microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. Amazon SNS provides topics for high-throughput, push-based, many-to-many messaging. Using Amazon SNS topics, your publisher systems can fan out messages to a large number of subscriber endpoints for parallel processing, including Amazon SQS queues, AWS Lambda functions, and HTTP/S webhooks. Additionally, SNS can be used to fan out notifications to end users using mobile push, SMS, and email.

4. Amazon MQ​

Managed Message Broker for ActiveMQ

Amazon MQ is a managed message broker service for Apache ActiveMQ that makes it easy to set up and operate message brokers in the cloud. Message brokers allow different software systems--often using different programming languages, and on different platforms--to communicate and exchange information. Amazon MQ reduces your operational load by managing the provisioning, setup, and maintenance of ActiveMQ, a popular open-source message broker. Connecting your current applications to Amazon MQ is easy because it uses industry-standard APIs and protocols for messaging, including JMS, NMS, AMQP, STOMP, MQTT, and WebSocket. Using standards means that in most cases, there's no need to rewrite any messaging code when you migrate to AWS.

5. Amazon Eventbridge​

Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus that makes it easy to connect applications together using data from your own applications, integrated Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, and AWS services. EventBridge delivers a stream of real-time data from event sources, such as Zendesk, Datadog, or Pagerduty, and routes that data to targets like AWS Lambda. You can set up routing rules to determine where to send your data to build application architectures that react in real time to all of your data sources. EventBridge makes it easy to build event-driven applications because it takes care of event ingestion and delivery, security, authorization, and error handling for you.

Schema Registry - Now in Preview:As your applications become more interconnected through events, you need to spend more effort in finding events and understanding their structure in order to write code to react to those events. The Amazon EventBridge schema registry stores event structure - or schema - in a shared central location and maps those schemas to code for Java, Python, and Typescript so it's easy to use events as objects in your code. Schema from your event bus can be automatically added to the registry through the schema discovery feature. You can connect to and interact with the schema registry from the AWS Management Console, APIs, or the SDK Toolkits for Jetbrains (Intellij, PyCharm, Webstorm, Rider) and VS Code.

Amazon EventBridge Scheduler​

Amazon EventBridge Scheduler is a serverless scheduler that allows you to create, run, and manage tasks from one central, managed service. Highly scalable, EventBridge Scheduler allows you to schedule millions of tasks that can invoke more than 270 AWS services and over 6,000 API operations. Without the need to provision and manage infrastructure, or integrate with multiple services, EventBridge Scheduler provides you with the ability to deliver schedules at scale and reduce maintenance costs.

EventBridge Scheduler delivers your tasks reliably, with built-in mechanisms that adjust your schedules based on the availability of downstream targets. With EventBridge Scheduler, you can create schedules using cron and rate expressions for recurring patterns, or configure one-time invocations. You can set up flexible time windows for delivery, define retry limits, and set the maximum retention time for failed triggers.

Key features of EventBridge Scheduler​

EventBridge Scheduler offers the following key features that you can use to configure targets and scale your schedules.

  • Templated targets - EventBridge Scheduler supports templated targets to perform common API operations using Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, Lambda, and EventBridge. With predefined targets, you can configure your schedules quickly using the EventBridge Scheduler console, the EventBridge Scheduler SDK, or the AWS CLI.
  • Universal targets - EventBridge Scheduler provides a universal target parameter (UTP) that you can use to create customized triggers that target more than 270 AWS services and over 6,000 API operations on a schedule. With UTP, you can configure your customized triggers using the EventBridge Scheduler console, the EventBridge Scheduler SDK, or the AWS CLI.
  • Flexible time windows - EventBridge Scheduler supports flexible time windows, allowing you to disperse your schedules and improve the reliability of your triggers for use cases that do not require precise scheduled invocation of targets.
  • Retries - EventBridge Scheduler provides at-least-once event delivery to targets, meaning that at least one delivery succeeds with a response from the target. EventBridge Scheduler allows you to set the number of retries for your schedule for a failed task. EventBridge Scheduler retries failed tasks with delayed attempts to improve the reliability of your schedule and ensure targets are available.
