SNS Push Notification

AWS Simple Notification Service (SNS) enables sending push notifications to mobile devices through its API, allowing developers to programmatically send and receive push notifications worldwide. Users integrate AWS SNS's API into their applications, triggering automated push notifications for various purposes such as notifications, alerts, and customer communications.

Refer to the SNS documentation to dive deeper into the features AWS SNS offers and understand how it all works.
