In AWS SNS we have two clients: Publisher: Publisher are also known as producers that produce and send the message to the SNS. Publisher is the one who has all privileges which can manage who can send messages on topic. Subscribers: Subscribers are those who receive the messenger notifications from AWS SNS (Webservers, email address, Amazon SQS Queues, AWS Lambda). SNS TOPIC Delivery Formats/Transport protocols (Endpoints) Limitations of AWS SNS: Supported Push Notification Platforms: SNS Topic can have subscribers from any supported push notification platform as well as any other endpoint type such as SMS or Email.
