Capture and react to critical events
Easily capture important real-time data
Stream important events outside of PubNub
Events & Actions sifts through millions of events in real time and sends the relevant ones to your server or 3rd party services like Kafka, S3, SQS, and more.
Save dev time using ready-made integrations
Intuitive user interface that allows you to easily create integrations regardless of technical aptitude using a low-code/no-code approach.
Utilize enterprise-grade scalability
Events & Actions is built to handle the volume of large-scale applications so you can reliably and cost-effectively filter events and trigger actions even when traffic spikes occur.
