Summary

Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) is a public/sub service for sending messages and notifications to multiple recipients at once. The sender simply publishes a message to a topic, and then all the subscribers on that topic receive the message. SNS is often combined with SQS for a fan-out pattern that streams one event to multiple processing systems.

Key points

SNS works with publish/subscribe patterns
Topic is the channel where the message is published
Subscribers can be SQS, Lambda, HTTP, email, and SMS
Fan-out sends a message to many destinations
