Overview

This pattern implements an Amazon CloudWatch Events rule connected to an Amazon SNS topic.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition:

import { Duration } from '@aws-cdk/core';
import * as events from '@aws-cdk/aws-events';
import * as iam from '@aws-cdk/aws-iam';
import { EventsRuleToSnsProps, EventsRuleToSns } from "@aws-solutions-constructs/aws-events-rule-sns";

const props: EventsRuleToSnsProps = {
    eventRuleProps: {
      schedule: events.Schedule.rate(Duration.minutes(5)),
    }
};

const constructStack = new EventsRuleToSns(this, 'test-construct', props);

// Grant yourself permissions to use the Customer Managed KMS Key
const policyStatement = new iam.PolicyStatement({
    actions: ["kms:Encrypt", "kms:Decrypt"],
    effect: iam.Effect.ALLOW,
    principals: [ new iam.AccountRootPrincipal() ],
    resources: [ "*" ]
});

constructStack.encryptionKey?.addToResourcePolicy(policyStatement);

Initializer

new EventsRuleToSNS(scope: Construct, id: string, props: EventsRuleToSNSProps);

Parameters

• scope Construct

• id string

• props EventsRuleToSnsProps

Pattern Construct Props

Name	Type	Description
eventRuleProps	events.RuleProps	User-provided properties to override the default properties for the CloudWatch Events rule.
existingTopicObj?	sns.Topic	An optional, existing SNS topic to be used instead of the default topic. If an existing topic is provided, the topicProps property will be ignored.
topicProps?	sns.TopicProps	Optional user-provided properties to override the default properties for the SNS topic. Ignored if an existingTopicObj is provided.
enableEncryptionWithCustomerManagedKey?	boolean	Whether to use a customer-managed encryption key, either managed by this CDK app or imported. If importing an encryption key, it must be specified in the encryptionKey property for this construct.
encryptionKey?	kms.Key	An optional, existing encryption key to be used instead of the default encryption key.
encryptionKeyProps?	kms.KeyProps	Optional user-provided properties to override the default properties for the encryption key.

Pattern Properties

Name	Type	Description
eventsRule	events.Rule	Returns an instance of the Events rule created by the pattern.
snsTopic	sns.Topic	Returns an instance of the SNS topic created by the pattern.
encryptionKey	kms.Key	Returns an instance of the encryption key created by the pattern.

Default settings

Out-of-the-box implementation of this pattern without any overrides will set the following defaults:

Amazon CloudWatch Events rule

• Grant least privilege permissions to CloudWatch Events to publish to the SNS topic.

Amazon SNS topic

• Configure least privilege access permissions for SNS topic.

• Enable server-side encryption for SNS topic using customer-managed AWS KMS key.

• Enforce encryption of data in transit.
