Creating a Topic

Sam has been doing such a great job with her new skills, she got a promotion.

With her new title of Information Systems Analyst 3 (as opposed to 2), she has gotten a tiny pay bump in exchange for a lot more work.

Knowing what she can do, the City Council asked Sam to prototype an alerting system that will alert them when any department has more than 100 Get It Done requests outstanding.

They would like for council members and department directors to receive the alert.

Help Sam use her new knowledge of Amazon SNS to create an alerting system for Council!
