Comment on Show HN: Jiter – Just in Time Webhooks

Comments

So... kind of Google Cloud Tasks, but webhook only? Or EventBridge/CloudWatch Events in AWS-land...

Similar, but think more for "one off" events for now, we plan to add more "cron" like functionality in the future.

Instead of having EventBridge trigger a lambda to poll your DB every hour for users that signed up 24 hours ago to send them a welcome email, when that user is created you can send us that event with that users info and the emailTemplateId so you can be reminded of it in 24 hours. Once you receive the event from us, you'd send the email like normal on your app server. You don't have to manage the polling infrastructure.
