An application development team is designing a microservice that will convert large images to smaller,...

Creating an Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) queue and configuring the S3 bucket to send a notification to the SQS queue when an image is uploaded to the S3 bucket will ensure that the Lambda function is triggered in a stateless and durable manner.

Configuring the Lambda function to use the SQS queue as the invocation source, and deleting the message in the queue after it is successfully processed will ensure that the Lambda function processes the image in a stateless and durable manner.

Amazon SQS is a fully managed message queuing service that enables you to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. SQS eliminates the complexity and overhead associated with managing and operating-message oriented middleware, and empowers developers to focus on differentiating work. When new images are uploaded to the S3 bucket, SQS will trigger the Lambda function to process the image and compress it. Once the image is processed, the SQS message is deleted, ensuring that the Lambda function is stateless and durable.
