Amazon SNS Room for Improvement

Message flow could continue to improve. 

Messages should flow through a gateway without the need for a mediator. The gateway could check security and vulnerability before transferring messages to the receiver side.

In future releases, I want to see if the platforms that SMS can reach. It would be a good way to improve it. More platforms to be able to use it.

There needs to be more documentation on the integration with different platforms. For example, creating an Apple integration and learning how to build the SNS platform is difficult.

The pricing can also be better.

I don't mind if, in the future, Amazon SNS plans to provide any future configuration from AWS at a good price.

In the future, there needs to be an update in Amazon SNS. If you are going to initiate Amazon SNS configuration and set up the tool in your organization, the configuration phase is carried out one by one. For example, if I get 50 servers, I have to go through the configuration phase and initiate the Amazon SNS topic, for which you need to provide a proper SNS configuration that could take a lot of time. I expect Amazon SNS to provide some capabilities to allow the configuration process to be done in a single script.

Amazon SNS needs to provide a bulk uploading system to users in the future.

We would like to have the option when someone leaves the organization or moves to another team, to remove notifications. Currently this needs to be done manually by the company admin. 

Secondly, we would like to separate notifications for instances when there are multiple jobs in progress and to be able to create specific alerts for new jobs that are started.

A major issue with AWS as a whole is that it has a lot of services that do the same thing, and people get confused about which one to use in which scenario. Previously, we used to use SNS for connecting microservices. SNS has around six types of subscribers. We can subscribe to Lambda, HTTP, HTTPS, SMS, email, and push notifications. We used to use HTTP endpoints and Lambda for connecting to microservice systems. About a year ago, AWS released EventBridge, which is a better service for connecting microservices.

There could be more integration with other solutions. Right now, I can communicate in five different ways within a minute. I would like there to be more options for integration, like with Slack or Microsoft Teams for example.

I recently worked with Firebase, and it provides an option to create a marketing campaign with a title and a specific image to inform our audience about something. We just design the campaign and then use the push notifications. It would be good if Amazon also adds a similar feature.
