This post introduces a CloudFormation template for prioritizing AWS Health alerts using AWS User Notifications. It details a solution that filters events by service and separates them into 'CRITICAL' (issues, scheduled changes) and 'INFORMATIONAL' (account notifications) tiers. The solution supports four deployment modes (Linked, Payer, Combined, PayerCombined) offering different scopes and notification channels, including direct email and custom SNS-formatted emails via EventBridge. It also outlines the architecture, prerequisites, and deployment walkthrough for implementing this prioritization system.
