Is it possible to auto send/push the messages in Amazon SQS to DynamoDB? I wish to send my messages to SQS and for period of time I want to send this to DynamoDB. Another service should fetch the DynamoDB table and send it as email using SES.
Kindly help me out to achieve this. I will be using it for the User notification purpose from a Social networking site.
Thanks.
There is no AWS mechanism to automatically publish SQS messages to DynamoDB; but you can use an AWS Lambda event source mapping to automatically pull SQS messages and invoke a Lambda function, and it's pretty straightforward to write a Lambda function that writes those messages to DynamoDB. (Here's an example using Node.js: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/dynamodb-example-table-read-write.html.)
Yes I agree Hyangelo, you can do this with Simple Workflow Service (SWF).
SWF will give you a control feature over your application enabling you to distribute and execute different services or tasks when you want.
Here is the link to the documentation: http://aws.amazon.com/swf/
Sounds like a workflow system from how you describe what you want, have you considered Simple Workflow Service?
SQS can't be processed w/o pulling messages. You can either use SWF to solve your use-case OR use SNS.
SNS<=>SQS binding is free by AWS. Send your messages to SNS, bind your SNS with SQS & lambda-function.
On triggering lambda function - you can create dynamodb-record and send it to another SNS2.
Bind SNS2 <=> SES which will trigger the email.
