Managing large Amazon SQS messages with Extended Client Library and Amazon Simple Storage Service

Use the Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Java and Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Python to send large messages, especially for payloads between 256 KB and 2 GB. These libraries store the message payload in an Amazon S3 bucket and send a reference to the stored object in the Amazon SQS queue.

Note

The Amazon SQS Extended Client Libraries are compatible with both standard and FIFO queues.
