Description

This was issue bigchaindb/bigchaindb#1339 but I copied it here and closed it there.

> BigchainDB events API (see bigchaindb/bigchaindb#862) should support WebHooks to enable third parties to trigger their own business logic on specific events. This would fit well because many businesses and developerss are using cloud services like AWS [Lambda](https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/) and AWS [API Gateway](https://aws.amazon.com/api-gateway/) to build their own applications. A WebHook would be able to trigger custom behaviors on their side, in a """""smart contract""""" fashion.

Research direction

Start by reading the BigchainDB events API referenced as issue #862 and review the AWS Lambda and API Gateway context in this proposal. Define the webhook events, delivery behavior, and proposal scope; done means a BEP clearly specifies how third parties would receive and act on those events.
