Build a central alerting approach with CloudWatch, Lambda, EventBridge, and CDK across your AWS Organization.

AWS Fundamentals offers foundational knowledge and resources for understanding Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing services. From basic concepts like virtual servers and storage to advanced topics like serverless architecture and machine learning on AWS, readers can learn how to leverage the full potential of cloud computing for their applications and businesses.

AWS Fundamentals

Learn how to build a centralized alerting system across AWS Organizations using CloudWatch, EventBridge, Lambda, and CDK. The architecture uses StackSets to deploy EventBridge rules across member accounts, forwarding all CloudWatch alarms to a central observability account where a Lambda function processes and routes them to messaging platforms like Discord or Slack. This approach simplifies alert management for developers who only need to create alarms without worrying about routing logic, while platform teams maintain a unified alerting infrastructure across production and development environments.
