How to Keep Amazon SNS Notifications Private
In this lab, you will learn how to maintain the privacy of the AWS cloud environment by creating a private Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) with a secure subnet. You will establish VPC endpoints for internal communication, utilize Simple Notification Service (SNS) for private messaging, and monitor these messages using CloudWatch.

Learning Objectives
Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) is a fully managed messaging solution that supports multiple communication protocols such as SMS, email, and mobile push notifications. Integrated seamlessly with AWS CloudWatch, it contributes to building cloud-native applications by facilitating real-time notifications, event-driven architectures, and efficient monitoring for optimal performance and resource health in the AWS environment.
You will start by setting up a private Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) isolated from the internet. Inside this VPC, you will deploy an EC2 instance. To enable communication between internal resources within this isolated environment, you will use VPC endpoints. Next, you will employ a Lambda function, an SNS topic, and an SNS subscription to send messages within your private network. These messages will traverse the private network, and logs detailing these activities will be stored in CloudWatch.
Upon completing this lab, you will be well-equipped to deploy a private cloud infrastructure in AWS and facilitate communication between internal resources without the need for internet connectivity.

Your method is simple, straight to the point and I can practice with it everywhere, even from my phone, that's something I have never had in other learning platforms.
I highly recommend Educative. The courses are well organized and easy to understand.
I prefer Educative courses because they have a nice mix of text & images. I find that with full video courses, it can often be too easy to go into passive learning mode.
