AWS SQS

The AWS SQS integration queues device events in your SQS queue for asynchronous processing by your application.

How it works

When events match a route configured with an SQS destination, the system publishes event messages to your specified queue. Your application consumes messages from the queue at its own pace.

Setting up SQS integration

  1. Create an SQS queue in your AWS account.
  2. Configure the appropriate IAM permissions to allow Blecon to send messages.
  3. In the Console, add a route to your network with AWS SQS as the destination.
  4. Enter your queue URL and AWS region.
  5. Select which event types to deliver.

Use cases

  • Decoupled processing — Process events at your own pace without worrying about webhook timeouts.
  • Fan-out — Combine with SQS subscriptions to distribute events to multiple consumers.
  • Reliability — SQS provides built-in message retention and retry.
