Amazon SQS is a fully managed message queue: standard and FIFO queues with at-least-once delivery and managed scaling.
Catalog categories: messaging.
Catalogued capability areas: - Standard and FIFO queues - At-least-once and exactly-once (FIFO) delivery - Dead-letter queues, visibility timeouts, batching
This summary reflects the catalog record, not a complete product specification. Verify intended users, end-to-end workflows, supported platforms, edge cases, data handling, and constraints against cited sources. Treat capability labels as research leads until that verification is complete.
5 candidate projects in the landscape. A candidate may cover all, part, or none of what SQS does — read the coverage and gaps below.
Mature multi-protocol message broker.
Queue semantics differ from SQS.
Lightweight messaging and JetStream persistence.
Cloud-native broker.
Implements a subset of the SQS API.
Drop-in SQS-compatible queue.
SQS-compatible message queue.
Newer drop-in replacement.
Java multi-protocol broker.
JMS-oriented.
Alternative coverage
Available. Both general brokers and SQS-API-compatible queues exist.
The gap
SQS’s fully managed, effectively infinite scale is operational; API compatibility is covered by ElasticMQ/SmoothMQ.
This Markdown file is the coding-agent skill for SQS. Give it to your agent in your project; it guides research, reuse decisions, implementation and verification.
Give the SQS skill to your coding agent in your project. Ask it to evaluate RabbitMQ ↗ against your needs, reuse what fits, then follow the skill's build and verification instructions.
Give the product skill to your coding agent in the project where you want to build. Optional starter workspace: rae build product aws-sqs --out ./aws-sqs. CLI reference.
