Hello fellow zombies!
Today we’re going to take a look at one of the services that AWS offers, the SNS service, or Simple Notification Service. This service was one of the first I used as a developer and it holds a near and dear place in my undead heart.
The SNS service can be used to send a message to a group of subscribers. The subscriber can be something like an email or SMS, where the message itself has value to the end user, or it can be an application program, where the message itself is processed by the program for further purposes.
The scenario: our zombie wants to have a way to notify other zombies when humans are nearby. That way all the zombies can easily find humans to … hang out with, yeah.
