SQS
We are all aware of the basic solution architecture principle that states you should always make your solutions loosely coupled or decoupled to ensure maximum availability and reliability.
Message queue is one of the services that help us deploy the solutions in a decoupled environment, where all the components communicate with each other using message queue.
For this, we have many queuing services, such as RabbitMQ and Qpid.
On AWS, we have SQS. This is also the oldest service of AWS. It's a managed, reliable, and highly scalable service. It moves data between distributed application components and helps you decouple these components.
Now let's understand how to secure SQS services. The complete SQS platform is managed by AWS in the backend according to the shared responsibility model.
Securing SQS
In SQS, we define security using IAM for authentication and access control and SSE. Let's see both methods in detail:
- Authentication and access control—access to SQS requires users to get authenticated...
