Simple Queue Service Integration
Explore how to connect AWS Lambda functions with Amazon SQS to handle message queues efficiently. Learn to set up event-driven Lambda handlers in C#, process SQS messages, and log outputs for scalable serverless workflows.
What is Amazon SQS?
Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) is a fully managed message queuing service provided by AWS. It offers a reliable and scalable way to decouple and distribute messages between different components of an application or between different applications.
Amazon SQS can be used just like any other queuing mechanism or message broker. A service puts a message in a queue. Another service might be listening to this queue and taking the correct action when it receives a message. AWS Lambda acts as a listener.
