The project’s goal is to create a service for surfacing events to end users (where a user can be a cloud app developer, or a customer using one of those apps).
For example, a developer may want to be notified when their heat template is finished building, or when one of their servers is low on disk space. Alternatively, a user of MyHipsterApp may want to get a text when one of their friends invites them to listen to That Band You’ve Never Heard Of.
A lot of people have been asking for notifications support. We should come up with a plan to deliver notification features iteratively, so that we can begin delivering value as soon as Juno-1.
