Amazon SQS is especially useful when you need to make an API endpoint asynchronous—for example, when the requested work is heavy and could take a long time to complete. Instead of forcing the user to wait for the endpoint to finish processing, the API can immediately return a job token (or job ID). The user can then use that token later to check the status of the job and fetch the result once it’s ready.
