AWSQueueService UsageValue












0














I'm new to this AWS and SQS and playing with it. My SQS billing says I have used my free tier allocation limit in just 10 days for the month and I am not clear what is the reason for such a heavy usage, when 99.9% if time the Queues are empty.



I have a total of 6 queues including 2 DLQs. I have created them all using default settings and not set any throttling or assigned any extra resources.



The functional logic I implemented is, a Lambda checks if there is any notifications to send every 30 minutes and if there are then it creates a message which it puts in a SQS. 99.9% of the time the lambda returns empty results.



When a message is put on SQS then a Lambda is triggered which actually sends the notifications and any failures are put in DLQ. And if the lambda receives any error response when sending a notification then all these error messages are put in another Queue which triggers another lambda and logs these in a database. But all of this is skipped 99.9% of the time, unless I am manually testing the flow.



Below is a snippet of the SQS usage report.



Service, Operation, UsageType, StartTime, EndTime, UsageValue
AWSQueueService, Receive, EU-Requests-Tier1, 11/01/18 00:00,11/01/18 01:00, 2699
AWSQueueService, GetQueueAttributes,EU-Requests-Tier1, 11/01/18 00:00, 11/01/18 01:00, 180
AWSQueueService,GetQueueAttributes, EU-Requests-Tier1,11/01/18 01:00,11/01/18, 02:00,180
AWSQueueService,Receive,EU-Requests-Tier1,11/01/18 01:00,11/01/18,02:00,2696



In the snippet I see most of the usage is due to below actions.
AWSQueueService Receive
AWSQueueService GetQueueAttributes



It is not clear what is causing such high usage value. In some forums I have read I need to make the Queue implement LongPolling than short polling (which is the default).



It would be great if someone can explain what the actions "Receive" and "GetQueueAttributes" represent and how those can be reduced?
