Deconstructing 'The Destined Lambda' Serverless Architecture Pattern

This pattern uses AWS CDK to deploy a Lambda function with Destinations configured to send events to EventBridge. Using Destinations allows you to have no EventBridge logic inside your Lambda so not only are you decoupled by building event driven architectures but your lambda is decoupled from the implementation!

Great content, I just bought the cdkbook, I am waiting for its release.

Good video thanks. I think you can simplify your pattern and take out SNS . If you add the X-AmZ-Invovation-Type = 'Event" which will make the POST asynchronous and allow you to call the lambda directly which will still call the destination.

So I want to use the Event Bridge and have the target as AWS Kinesis Firehose, which I have got working fine, however how can I use a schema in the schema registry to validate the incoming event instead of the lamdba? Or is this even possible?
