Amazon EventBridge Pipes | Serverless Office Hours

[@yuyokk]

When EventBridge pipes were released during re:invent I couldn't understand the point why I need them if I can do this with Lambdas. After watching this video I realise that I dont need to write those "glue" Lambdas anymore. Will try pipes. Thanks!

Great to hear!

Does pipe guarantee exactly once delivery ? Say I am using fifo sqs and want to trigger my step function as a pipe target and the step function needs to run a 2 hour job to pass down the data to next stage. I cannot afford the step function triggered twice with the exactly same message. I guess I need to do some deduplication logic using dynamodb lock in the enrichment phase?

I have an aws pipe which is getting json input from sqs. And the target for the pipe is lambda function. If i remove the filter from the pipe then target lambda is getting invoked. But if i use the filter, nothing works even i cant see anything in monitoring. Please help me on this problem. Note: i have already tested the json event with the filter pattern, and it works. i have tried removing the filter step and it works but i need to filter my json based on filter pattern.

Can the source be events from an event bridge rule?

[@architectelevator]

Currently Pipes supports event sources that are polled, so it doesn't process events directly from EventBridge event bus. You could connect the two via SQS, though.
