Configure S3 Events with EventBridge

Amazon EventBridge lets you direct the flow of actions when certain events occur on your AWS infrastructure. In this lab, you will create source and destination S3 buckets to be included in a greater media processing pipeline. Then, you will create an EventBridge rule that will trigger upon media upload to the source bucket and test this rule against a sample Lambda target function.
