What problem does it solve?

It removes the manual, error-prone work of provisioning a complete AWS queue tier (SQS/DLQ, worker Lambda, supporting data stores, and observability) so you can run background jobs reliably in your application environment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Queue + Dead-Letter Queue (DLQ): Creates an SQS queue with optional DLQ support for safer message retries and failure handling.
  • Worker Lambda (container-based) + ES Modules: Deploys a worker Lambda that runs from the shared container image with an overridable command entrypoint.
  • Feature-flagged Jobs DynamoDB: Optionally provisions a DynamoDB jobs table and connects the needed IAM policies/outputs for tracking.
  • CloudWatch dashboards and alarms: Produces operational visibility for the queue and related failure modes, including DLQ-related alarms when enabled.
  • Secure, composable stack identity: Uses a consistent stack naming scheme and exports outputs intended for wiring into the backend stack.

Quick Start

Instruct the AI to deploy the queue tier by running the ipa-stack-queue skill with your APP_NAMESPACE, APP_ENV, ECR ImageUri, and Cognito AuthIssuer/AuthAudience, enabling the jobs table for job tracking.
