In this article, we will explain how to monitor AWS SQS with Prometheus. To monitor AWS SQS, we will leverage the data offered by CloudWatch exporting the metrics to Prometheus using the YACE exporter (Yet Another CloudWatch Exporter). Finally, we will dive into what to monitor and what to alert. AWS SQS (Simple Queue Service) has gained popularity as a way to communicate and decouple asynchronous applications, specifically for its easy integration with AWS Lambda functions.
