Episode 75 - Amazon EventBridge & Amazon AppFlow Special

In this themed episode of AWS TechChat, I am joined by Gabe Hollombe, as we look at two relatively new AWS Services, Amazon Event Bridge and Amazon App Flow. We started the show revisiting a messaging foundation and what gaps Amazon Event Bridge fills in our product portfolio. We discussed that Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus that makes it easy to connect applications together using data from your own applications, SaaS applications and AWS services before contrasting Amazon EventBridge to Amazon Cloudwatch Events, finally we discussed the Event Bridge Schema Registry allows you to discover, create, and manage OpenAPI schemas for events on EventBridge. You can find schemas for existing AWS services, create and upload custom schemas, or generate a schema based on events on an event bus. Lastly we spoken about Amazon AppFlow, an even newer AWS service, Amazon AppFlow is that enables you to securely transfer data between SaaS applications like Salesforce, Marketo, Slack with AWS services like Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift, in just a few clicks.
