# Amazon EventBridge

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus that makes it easier to build event-driven applications at scale using events generated from your applications, integrated Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, and AWS services. Configure routing rule to trigger Fylamynt incident to react to events happening in your application.

## Use Cases

The integration between Fylamynt and Amazon EventBridge lets you:

* Trigger a workflow in Fylamynt, when a matching event occurs on an EventBridge rule.
* Create workflows for steady-state management

## Configure Amazon EventBridge in Fylamynt

* Navigate to **Settings** > **Integrations** > **Amazon EventBridge**
* Configure a new integration instance
