Overview

Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) is a fully managed message queuing service that enables you to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. You can use this account type to connect JMS Snaps with data sources that use SQS account.

  • For SQS use cases, we recommend that you use the SQS Snap Pack, which is feature-rich and robust.

  • For JMS Snaps using Amazon SQS accounts, SQS only supports queues in synchronous mode with auto-acknowledgment. SQS accounts do not support asynchronous mode, client acknowledgment, or topics. 

  • If you're using a JMS Snap Pack, CLIENT-ACK, with a SQS account, then you must specify a STANDARD SQS queue. If you specify a FIFO SQS queue, the Snap fails.

  • The SQS account does not support Message Selector values—it expects the value to be null. Learn more: Support for Message selectors.
