Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide

How Do I...?

Welcome

This is the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide. This section describes who should read this

guide, how the guide is organized, and other resources related to the Amazon Simple Queue Service

(Amazon SQS).

Amazon SQS offers reliable and scalable hosted queues for storing messages as they travel between

computers. By using Amazon SQS, you can move data between distributed components of your

applications that perform different tasks without losing messages or requiring each component to be

always available.
