Module Summary

In this section, we learned:

  • What the EventBridge Quickstart for PagerDuty is
  • How to create a Stack that consumes the EventBridge events from PagerDuty

What did we build?

  • We created a CloudFormation Stack that built for us:

    • An Event Bus on the Partner Event Source from PagerDuty
    • A Rule on that Event Bus
    • A Lambda object with Python code
    • An IAM Role to allow the Lambda object to run

  • When PagerDuty sends a trigger event to EventBridge, the Lambda code will check if it’s a P1 or P2 and if so, run the appropriate Response Play.

  • When PagerDuty sends a resolved event to EventBridge, the Lambda code will check if it’s a P1 and if so, run the Resolved Response Play.

Be sure to Delete the CloudFormation Stack we just built to destroy the objects that were created so that no further costs are incurred!
