Announcing AWS User Notifications GA on AWS CloudFormation

AWS User Notifications is now supported on AWS CloudFormation, allowing you to easily provision and manage User Notification resources as part of your application's infrastructure-as-code (IaC). You can easily use User Notification to Configure Notifications to be sent via the Console Notifications Center, email, AWS Chatbot, or mobile push notifications to the AWS Console Mobile App to keep you informed about important events like Amazon CloudWatch Alarms. With this new capability, you can define Notification Configurations as part of your IaC practices. Specify notification configurations for specific resource types within your CloudFormation templates. For example, set up notifications to trigger when an Auto Scaling group scales out, an ELB is provisioned, or an RDS database is modified. You have granular control over which events will trigger notifications and who should receive them. This integration simplifies cloud operations by consolidating monitoring configuration right alongside your IaC templates. No more context switching between services - your notifications are defined declaratively within your infrastructure code. Setting up stack notifications is easy - just add the Notifications or NotificationContacts resource type (e.g., AWS::Notifications::NotificationConfiguration) in your CloudFormation template to configure the desired events and channels.
