## What it is
Spring Cloud AWS is a community-maintained Spring and Spring Boot integration project for AWS managed services such as S3, SQS, SNS, DynamoDB, SES, Parameter Store, and Secrets Manager. It exposes AWS services through familiar Spring idioms like templates, annotations, and auto-configuration.

## Use cases
- send and receive SQS messages from a Spring Boot app
- store and retrieve files in S3 using Spring Resource abstractions
- use DynamoDB with Spring-style operations and schema resolution
- send emails via SES in a Spring application
- publish notifications to SNS with annotation-driven HTTP endpoints
- read configuration and secrets from AWS Parameter Store and Secrets Manager
- consume Kinesis and DynamoDB Streams with Spring Integration

## When to choose
- you build Spring or Spring Boot applications on AWS and want idiomatic integrations
- you want auto-configured AWS clients with Spring configuration properties
- you prefer templates and annotations over raw AWS SDK boilerplate

## When to avoid
- you use a framework other than Spring
- you need services not covered by the project's integrations
- you want an official Amazon-supported library
