DESCRIPTION

Amazon SQS is a massively distributed, scalable message queuing service. It runs on tens of thousands of machines worldwide, and processes over 100,000,000 requests per second while generating petabytes of logs per hour. It is a critical dependency of the Amazon Marketplace, many other AWS services, and hundreds of thousands of companies globally.

Because of its near-unlimited scalability, SQS is a foundational building block of many other cloud services. As such, SQS implements its own storage, load balancing, distributed caching and host lifecycle solutions.

These decisions can have a financial impact of tens of millions of dollars to the service's monthly budget.
