- Log in to the AWS Management Console using your root account credentials.
- Open the Amazon SQS console by clicking on “Services” in the top navigation bar, selecting “SQS” from the dropdown menu.
- Click on the “Create New Queue” button.
- In the “Create New Queue” dialog box, enter a name for your queue. For example, let’s use “my-sqs-queue” as our queue name.
- Select the type of queue you want to create. There are two types of queues available: Standard Queue and FIFO Queue. Select “Standard Queue” for this lab.
- Configure the remaining settings for your queue, such as message retention period, maximum message size, and delivery delay. The default settings are sufficient for this lab.
- Click on the “Create Queue” button to create your SQS queue.
