Automated event monitoring has improved alerting and simplifies scheduling for data workflows
The best features Amazon EventBridge offers include the ability to integrate multiple AWS services such as SNS, Lambda, SQS, and ECS with Amazon EventBridge. You can filter events based on routing rules, and it is serverless and easy to auto-scale. You can also manage event routing across cross-accounts and schedule cron jobs inside Amazon EventBridge, which provides numerous use cases. The impact of Amazon EventBridge on my organization is very positive. I can directly receive notifications via Amazon EventBridge because I have integrated my Redshift queries inside my JSON payload, and I receive notifications over email as well as over Squadcast based on the events triggered from the Redshift side. Amazon EventBridge helps reduce manual work significantly. Previously, when I did not receive Redshift events and my Redshift query got stuck, which mainly happened during maintenance time and impacted the customer side, I had no way to address it. By monitoring those Redshift query events inside Amazon EventBridge, I can receive timely alerts via Squadcast, allowing me to monitor and fix the respective issues with the help of the Redshift data team.

Persistent messaging has improved reliability while message rate and licensing still need work
One problem is the license cost. If we take Kafka, it's an open source platform, Apache Kafka, but with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service, the license cost is significantly higher. The message rate in TIBCO Enterprise Message Service needs to be increased compared to Kafka. The streaming capacity of Kafka is much better than TIBCO Enterprise Message Service. This part should be improved. The message rate per bit, per minute, and per second is much lower in TIBCO Enterprise Message Service compared to Kafka. Setup is relatively simple and not overly complex, but we do need some root access and administrator privileges. However, the problem is that once we upgrade TIBCO Enterprise Message Service, whatever services are on the primary must be taken down.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best aspect of Amazon EventBridge is that it supports filtering options."
"It has self-explanatory documentation and works with most projects."
"The impact of Amazon EventBridge on my organization is very positive."
"Amazon EventBridge is very flexible."
"The best feature is that it allows you to perform recurring tasks efficiently."
"Amazon EventBridge allows for customization at my level, providing many options for determining which services are dependent, what account to use, and when the Lambda will trigger."
"It's a very secure and useful product wherein most of our clients are using this messaging product."
"TIBCO Enterprise Message Service's most valuable features are rapid zero-code integration and its large number of adapters and plugins."
"The Enterprise Messaging Server will store the message and wait for other subscribers to come onto the network."
"TIBCO Enterprise Message Service is a security and reliability product with persistent messaging, asynchronous and synchronous messaging for the queues and topics."
"It allows us to achieve synchronous as well as asynchronous communication with the added advantage of making the communication reliable."
"​The initial setup is straightforward and the product documentation is very good.​"
"We have implanted the core middleware solution for the organization using this product and it is responsible for communication between different applications."
"I like TIBCO's ability to create versioned queues and persistent messages."
 

Cons

"It would be good if the solution provided a feature to add multiple Cron expressions in one rule."
"Currently, it only supports triggering one job at a time. It would be helpful if it could handle multiple jobs or triggers simultaneously. What I mean is that currently, we can only perform one job at a time."
"I would rate the stability eight out of ten because sometimes I need to monitor EventBridge since there are occasions where it is not triggering."
"Amazon EventBridge can be improved as there are numerous use cases, but it is not able to handle as many events as compared to other tools such as Kafka or RabbitMQ."
"Amazon EventBridge doesn't have the feature of event replay."
"An area for improvement would be integration with the API layer."
"One problem is the license cost. If we take Kafka, it's an open source platform, Apache Kafka, but with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service, the license cost is significantly higher."
"​Since all the communications goes through this product, it acts as a single point of failure."
"I would like to see better integration with Java and Apache Kafka."
"Overall, my experience with the support team has been disappointing."
"It can be improved in the sense that in the market we can see the cloud is coming, but this is not cloud compatible."
"TIBCO also has its proprietary line of cloud-based applications, but specifically, these two products are not cloud compatible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"​The cost of licensing is very high. One should go for the product only if they need to ensure message reliability and they cannot afford to lose messages.​"
"In our case, we didn't pay for each product separately. We simply paid for all those companies that provided the components."
