SNS notification scheduling


Is it possible to schedule our push notification through SNS (to send it at a particular time of the day) which we are able to parse or moengage?


Solution

  • You can use CloudWatch Events to send a message to an Amazon SNS topic on a schedule. (Note: CloudWatch Events is not available in every region.)

    CloudWatch Events can be triggered by:

    • A schedule (eg every hour, or with a cron expression)
    • An API call (eg whenever an EC2 instance is launched)
    • Auto Scaling (eg an instance is removed)
    • An EC2 instance changes state (eg terminates)

    CloudWatch Events can trigger:

    • A message to an Amazon SQS queue
    • A message to an Amazon SNS topic
    • A message to an Amazon Kinesis stream
    • An AWS Lambda function
    • The start/stop/termination of an Amazon EC2 instance
    • Creation of an Amazon EBS snapshot
