My company has been sitting on a pile of AWS credits for a couple years now, and we recently were offered a separate $10,000 credit to build on Eventbridge (as in Amazon will pay for up to $10,000 in development for us to build something using Eventbridge). My basic understand is that Eventbridge takes "events" like someone placing an order, or clicking into a certain part of the site, and allows those events to get routed to other applications in some kind of code-less manner. What I'm trying to figure out is what that means in practice. Like, if a customer starts a wholesale order, Eventbridge could add that user to a Freshworks list and automation for potential wholesale customers. That much I'm pretty sure it can do. But what I don't know if it can do is if someone goes into the wholesale section, can it have Shopify generate a popup asking for that individual's email address (maybe offering some kind of discount)? Can it only do that if there's an Eventbridge integrated app that creates pop ups like that? Can it not do anything like that?
I have to get back to Amazon by the end of the month with a proposal for what we want to build, and I'm not one to throw away free money, so any help in explaining what the hell it is exactly that Eventbridge does and can do (particularly in a Shopify context) would be real helpful.
