SNS Platform Application

The SNS Platform Application is a resource used to manage and interact with mobile push notifications in AWS. It represents a platform-specific application for sending messages to mobile endpoints based on the Apple, Google, or other messaging platforms. By configuring the SNS Platform Application, you can integrate mobile push notifications into your applications, thereby reaching end-users on their mobile devices efficiently. For more detailed information, consult the official AWS SNS Platform Application documentation.

sns-endpoint​

The SNS platform application is directly related to the sns-endpoint type, as it serves as the set-up mechanism for push notifications that are sent to those endpoints. Each endpoint represents a unique device/app instance for a specific user. By configuring SNS platform applications, you enable the provisioning of endpoints, which can then receive messages based on the application configuration.
