Integration via cloud services
Cloud connectors provide an in-the-cloud integration service between as-a-service offerings. The Linxter - Amazon SQS connector provides such a service, connecting the Linxter cloud messaging platform and Amazon’s Simple Queue Service. With this cloud integration, developers who work with SQS can quickly and easily take advantage of the many communication plumbing features Linxter offers. For developers who work with Linxter, they can easily integrate with solutions already using SQS.
Using this test client, developers who have worked with SQS before will appreciate that the SQS requests and parameters used by this cloud service are unchanged, and that they can become immediately productive. For developers who are new to SQS, the sample app creates the format of each SQS operation for them, allowing them to begin using SQS with almost no training.
In the Test Client, the Command drop-down allows you to select any of the supported Amazon SQS request operations (see below). In the Message Body section of the Test Client, the standard SQS XML message is displayed for that command. You can manipulate the values within that message body as needed. Whenever you send an SQS request operation, you will receive a response with a Request ID which matches the message ID of the message sent. The response either provides the data requested or lets you know that the request operation was completed.
The SQS Request Types:
- CreateQueue
- ListQueues
- DeleteQueue
- SendMessage
- ReceiveMessage
- ChangeMessageVisibility
- DeleteMessage
- SetQueueAttributes
- GetQueueAttributes
- AddPermission
- RemovePermission
Try the Test Client for yourself!
