File Upload Notification System in AWS

In this video, we will walk through the process of creating a File Upload Notification System using AWS services. This system will monitor an S3 bucket for new file uploads, trigger a Lambda function to process the uploaded files, send notifications using SNS (Simple Notification Service), and store metadata in an SQS (Simple Queue Service) queue for further processing.
What You'll Learn:
S3 Event Trigger: How to set up an S3 bucket and configure event notifications for new file uploads.
AWS Lambda: Creating and configuring a Lambda function to handle file processing.
SQS (Simple Queue Service): Setting up an SQS queue to store metadata for further processing.
SNS (Simple Notification Service): Configuring SNS to send notifications when new files are uploaded.
Integration of S3 with Other Services: Best practices for integrating S3 with Lambda, SQS, and SNS to create a seamless workflow.
Step-by-Step Guide:
Set Up S3 Bucket: Create an S3 bucket and configure event notifications to trigger Lambda functions on new file uploads.
Create Lambda Function: Develop a Lambda function to process the uploaded files. This function can extract metadata, perform transformations, or any required processing.
Configure SNS: Set up SNS to send notifications about the file uploads. This can be configured to send emails, SMS, or push notifications.
Set Up SQS Queue: Create an SQS queue to store metadata extracted by the Lambda function. This metadata can be used for further processing or monitoring purposes.
Integration and Testing: Integrate all the services and perform end-to-end testing to ensure the system works as expected.
Benefits:
Automated Processing: Automates the file processing workflow, saving time and reducing manual effort.
Real-Time Notifications: Get real-time notifications about new file uploads, ensuring timely actions.
Scalable and Reliable: Built on AWS, ensuring scalability and reliability for handling large volumes of files.
