When a citizen uploads a permit PDF to an S3 bucket, several systems must react: virus scan, metadata tagging, and a Slack-style staff alert. Which AWS service routes those events to multiple targets with rules?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
EventBridge is the traffic cop for “something happened” messages — one upload event, many rule-matched destinations without hard-wiring every service to every other. A lone SQS queue is one inbox, ACM is about certificates, and stuffing PDFs into RDS rows is the wrong storage model.
Full Explanation
Amazon EventBridge is an event bus that matches events against rules and routes them to many targets such as Lambda, SQS, or notification services. S3 upload events feeding scan, tag, and notify workflows fit that pattern. SQS alone does not provide EventBridge-style rule routing, ACM manages certificates, and relational databases are not the preferred store for large binary uploads.
