# Notification Topic

A Notification Topic in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a communication channel used to broadcast messages to multiple subscribers. It enables event-driven messaging by allowing services or applications to publish messages that are then delivered to subscribed endpoints such as email, functions, or HTTPS endpoints. This helps decouple components and ensures reliable, scalable message distribution.
