Very cool service. I built an experiment a few months back whereby I needed to trigger a webhook back to my server at a specific time in the future. Gonna share it here incase anyone else finds it useful: https://onassar.github.io/experiments/boomerang-webhooks https://onassar.github.io/experiments/boomerang-webhooks It uses AWS API Gateway, Lambda and S3 to allow you to register a URL to be triggered at some future date. Hope it's helpful!

Not exactly what we do, but you can definitely use Svix to build something like this!

  Sorry if I wasn't clear. I didn't mean to imply that it's an alternative to Svix. More as something in the same space :)

    Yeah, I didn't think you were, it was more of a general clarification!

You could also use State machines to implement this. For fun, I'm trying to think of a way to abuse SQS delays as well, but not sure if that'd work :)

  SQS delays are limited to 15 minutes IIRC, and they are also a bit painful. You can definitely add a message with a timestamp and continue re-adding it to SQS until it's time, haha. Disclaimer: sounds horrible. :P

  Haha yeh I try to stay away from SQS when I can ;)
