Is the SQS Client thread safe?

[rodney-b]

Hi there, I saw in a discussion on the SQS SDK V1 repo that the client is thread safe, is this still true for SDK V2?

That is, can I instantiate a client once with sqs.NewFromConfig(cfg) like so

cfg, err := config.LoadDefaultConfig(ctx)
client :=  sqs.NewFromConfig(cfg)

and use the same client across multiple goroutines to publish (client.SendMessage(ctx, input)) concurrently? Is this the recommended practice?

Thanks!

Hi @rodney-b ,

Yes the v2 client is the same as v1 in terms of thread safety.

use the same client across multiple goroutines to publish (client.SendMessage(ctx, input)) concurrently? Is this the recommended practice?

yes.
