Amazon SQS is a fully managed message queuing service that enables you to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications.
You can now use Extended Client Library for Python for messages that are larger than 256KB, up to a maximum of 2GB. The library saves the actual payload to an Amazon S3 bucket and sends a message containing a reference of the stored Amazon S3 object to an Amazon SQS queue. In addition, SQS already supports the Extended Client Library for Java. Now, customers can also fan out large messages to SQS using Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), using the Extended Client Library for Python or Java.
