AWS Step Functions & EventBridge Support
AWS Step Functions & EventBridge support, troubleshooting and optimization.
Step Functions and EventBridge connect serverless pieces together. Most issues come from missing retries, unclear error handling and events that never reach their targets.
Common Step Functions & EventBridge problems we fix
The AWS Step Functions and Amazon EventBridge issues our engineers see most often, and how we resolve them.
Step Functions execution failed or stuck
We inspect the execution history to find the failing state, then add Retry and Catch blocks, fix IAM permissions and set timeouts so workflows cannot hang forever.
EventBridge rule not triggering targets
Event patterns that do not match, rules on the wrong bus, disabled rules or missing target permissions are common. We test patterns against sample events and check target invocation metrics.
Duplicate or lost events
Delivery is at least once, so consumers need idempotency. We add dead-letter queues, retry policies and idempotent handlers.
Step Functions cost
Standard workflows bill per state transition. High-volume short workflows may fit Express workflows. We choose the right type and reduce transitions.
Scheduled jobs and cron on AWS
EventBridge Scheduler replaces cron servers. We move scheduled tasks to serverless schedules with retries and alerts.

Specialized Step Functions & EventBridge support
Deep-dive help for specific Step Functions & EventBridge tasks.
AWS Step Functions error handling: Retry and CatchBuild reliable AWS Step Functions workflows. TwinTix adds Retry, Catch, timeouts and compensation so transient failures recover and real failures are visible.
Step Functions Standard vs Express workflowsChoose between Step Functions Standard and Express workflows. TwinTix compares duration, execution guarantees, logging and cost, and converts safely.
Fixing an EventBridge rule that is not triggeringFix an AWS EventBridge rule that does not trigger. TwinTix checks event bus, pattern matching, target permissions and dead-letter queues, and proves delivery.
Replacing cron servers with EventBridge SchedulerMove cron jobs from EC2 servers to AWS EventBridge Scheduler. TwinTix converts schedules, sets time zones, retries and dead-letter queues, and retires the server.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use Step Functions?
When a process has multiple steps, branching, retries or waits. For a single function or simple fan-out, Lambda with SQS or EventBridge is often enough.
Standard or Express workflows?
Standard suits long-running, auditable workflows. Express suits high-volume, short workflows with lower cost per execution.
How do I debug EventBridge?
Use the rule metrics, archive and replay, and a test event against your pattern. Add a CloudWatch Logs target to inspect events.
