Amazon RDS events now include attributes for filtering with Amazon SNS
Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) now supports the delivery of message attributes, which provide structured metadata about a message. RDS event attributes are separate from the message, but are sent with the message body. The message receiver can use this information to decide how to handle the message, enabling routing and filtering without having to process the message body first.

With Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) or Amazon Simple Queuing Service (SQS) you can now consolidate multiple filters for each condition into a single topic subscription. SNS and RDS events with attributes allow you to offload the message filtering logic from subscribers and the message routing logic from publishers. Each subscriber receives and processes only the messages accepted by its filter policy.
Amazon RDS event attributes are now available in all AWS Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. For more information about RDS events and attributes, see Working with Amazon RDS event notification. For more information on filtering, see Amazon SNS Message Filtering.
