Services

[Amazon Simple Notification Service](https://aws.amazon.com/sns/) (SNS) announces integration with [AWS End User Messaging](https://aws.amazon.com/end-user-messaging) for the delivery of SMS messages. Starting today, SNS customers can start using new features like SMS resource management, two-way messaging, granular resource permissions, country block rules, and centralized billing for all AWS SMS messaging without making any changes to configurations or the global AWS SMS network used by SNS. Amazon SNS is a fully managed pub/sub service that provides one-to-many message delivery to various endpoints, including AWS Lambda, Amazon SQS, Amazon Data Firehose, mobile devices via AWS End User Messaging and mobile push, as well as email. AWS End User Messaging’s SMS capabilities provide resilient and flexible APIs to deliver SMS at a global scale with capabilities like number fail-over with phone pools, multi-media messaging (MMS), and the SMS simulator. If you already send SMS via Amazon SNS APIs, you do not need to take any action. Existing resources such as phone numbers or sender IDs that you own have been configured with the required permissions. You will need to grant Amazon SNS permission to send to any new phone number you request after September 24, 2024.
