Trigger ECS Fargate task when item is added to SQS queue

[karkir0003]

Hi,
I'm trying to build an application and for the backend piece, I'm trying to write a message to SQS queue, have ECS Fargate tasks listen to the queue and service the requests of the SQS Queue. How do I design an ECS Fargate cluster that will autoscale based on the size of the SQS queue and also be able to service requests in the SQS queue (and obviously remove the sqs queue items that have already been handled). Can someone provide example code with boto3 or a resource that outlines step by step how to configure this functionality in AWS management console @garnaat @kopertop @simonw @robbiet480 @trevorrowe

Hi @karkir0003 - thanks for reaching out again. You didn't follow up on your previous discussion, so please return to #3542 to continue this conversation. I've edited my previous response to include more details. Also, in the future I'd advise against tagging several different users in a discussion; those users you mentioned specifically are not currently working directly with the boto3 team. Thanks!
