Amazon EventBridge resources

In late 2019, Hudson, a leader in recruitment and talent management, announced the release of JobAccelerator. JobAccelerator is a SaaS application, built using contemporary event-driven architectures powered by AWS serverless and data lake technologies (Amazon EventBridge, AWS Step Functions orchestration, AWS Lambda, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), AWS Glue, and Amazon Athena). 

Amazon EventBridge, the backbone of JobAccelerator, drives microservice communication between AWS services and integrates seamlessly with third-party products, such as authentication and messaging services. Through the adoption of Amazon EventBridge, JobAccelerator was able to scale ten-fold in a short period of time—going from an average of 5,000 events per month in late 2019 to an average of 50,000 events in early 2021 in a highly cost effective manner—resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars of saved annually. Through low-code development, Amazon EventBridge has also enabled the JobAccelerator development team to deliver new features in a timely fashion to a highly competitive market.

JobAccelerator is currently trusted by many Fortune 500 companies in Asia Pacific and Oceania regions, empowering tens of thousands of outplaced employees to secure their next roles through coaching and job-seeking experiences.

“By using services such as Amazon EventBridge, Hudson has created a highly scalable and cost effective technology that helps job seekers build their perfect resume, refine their job search, track their job activity, get better job recommendations, and secure their next role quicker. It has allowed us to bring a product to market that services both ASX100 companies and individuals in under three months.”
