If I told you to move data between two AWS services — what’s the first thing you’d reach for?
Lambda. Right.
And that Lambda has zero business logic. No transformation, no decisions, no domain code.
It just reads from one place and writes to another.
That’s not a function. That’s glue.
AWS built a whole service to replace that glue. It’s called EventBridge Pipes.
I just published a full video breaking down every component:
🔹 SOURCE
Native integrations with DynamoDB Streams, Kinesis, SQS, MSK — no polling code needed.
🔹 FILTERING
Drop unwanted events before they ever reach your target. You only pay for what matters.
🔹 ENRICHMENT
Optional Lambda step to reshape or enrich the payload — only when you actually need logic.
🔹 TARGET
Route to 14+ AWS services. One pipe, zero glue Lambdas.
The video includes animated architecture breakdowns and a full console demo building a real pipeline: DynamoDB Streams → Filter → Enrich → SQS.
If you’ve ever written a Lambda that just passes data from A to B — this one’s for you.

AWS EventBridge Pipes is a managed service designed to replace boilerplate Lambda functions that simply move data between AWS services. It provides native integrations with sources like DynamoDB Streams, Kinesis, SQS, and MSK, built-in event filtering to reduce costs, an optional enrichment step via Lambda, and routing to 14+ AWS target services. A video walkthrough covers each component with animated architecture diagrams and a console demo building a DynamoDB Streams → Filter → Enrich → SQS pipeline.
