Integration and Conversation Patterns in SaaS Applications
summary
Describes three concrete SaaS integration patterns: channel isolation (shared, dedicated, sharded message channels) with trade-offs for noisy neighbors and billing tiers; sign up before subscribe that splits onboarding into a quick HTTP signup and a deferred subscription workflow to avoid transactional rollback; and webhook/async response flows using queues/topics and event routers. Examples use AWS serverless components—Amazon SQS, EventBridge, Lambda, Step Functions, DynamoDB, Cognito—and emphasize decoupling, buffering, and cost/availability trade-offs.
