You can use Systems Manager Automation to author runbooks to execute common IT tasks, such as patching or restarting instances, at scale with rate controls. Now you can extend those runbooks to communicate with other operational tools and applications in your organization. For example, you can add a step in your runbook to notify an operations Slack channel before performing patch operations on your instances.
