Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I am able to find out what's going on very easily.""The solution is easy to scale and cost-effective.""The libraries that connect and manage the queues are rich in features.""SQS is very stable, and it has lots of features.""I appreciate that Amazon SQS is fully integrated with Amazon and can be accessed through normal functions or serverless functions, making it very user-friendly. Additionally, the features are comparable to those of other solutions.""We use SNS as the publisher, and our procurement service subscribes to those events using SQS. In the past, we relied on time-based or batch-based processes to send data between services on-premises. With SQS, we can trigger actions based on real-time changes in business processes, improving reliability.""There is no setup just some easy configuration required.""One of the useful features is the ability to schedule a call after a certain number of messages accumulate in the container. For example, if there are ten messages in the container, you can perform a specific action."

"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable.""We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell.""Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements""Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff.""The product's feature of data transaction works fast.""The stability of this solution was very good.""The security is great.""The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling."

Cons
"There are some issues with SQS's transaction queue regarding knowing if something has been received.""Support could be improved.""Sending or receiving messages takes some time, and it could be quicker.""The initial setup of Amazon SQS is in the middle range of difficulty. You need to learn Amazon AWS and know how to navigate, create resources, and structures, and provide rules.""The solution is not available on-premises so that rules out any customers looking for the messaging solution on-premises.""It would be easier to have a dashboard that allows us to see everything and manage everything since we have so many queues.""I do not think that this solution is easy to use and the documentation of this solution has a lot of problems and can be improved in the next release. Most of the time, the images in the document are from older versions.""The current visibility timeout of five minutes is okay. However, I'd like to explore the possibility of extending it for specific use cases."

More Amazon SQS Cons →

"It will be very useful if we could communicate with other database types from Greenplum (using a database link).""There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product.""The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved.""Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy.""This solution struggled with multi-regional synchronization.""When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use.""The initial setup is somewhat complex and the out-of-the-box configuration requires optimization.""The installation is difficult and should be made easier."

    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. SQS eliminates the complexity and overhead associated with managing and operating message oriented middleware, and empowers developers to focus on differentiating work. Using SQS, you can send, store, and receive messages between software components at any volume, without losing messages or requiring other services to be available. Get started with SQS in minutes using the AWS console, Command Line Interface or SDK of your choice, and three simple commands.

    SQS offers two types of message queues. Standard queues offer maximum throughput, best-effort ordering, and at-least-once delivery. SQS FIFO queues are designed to guarantee that messages are processed exactly once, in the exact order that they are sent.

    VMware Tanzu is a robust platform tailored for data warehousing, complex analytics, BI applications, and predictive analytics. It excels in scalability, performance, and parallel processing, enhancing data handling efficiency. Users report significant productivity improvements and streamlined operations, making it ideal for comprehensive data solutions.
