 # Serverless Framework Node SQS Producer-Consumer on AWS
 
-This template demonstrates how to develop and deploy a simple SQS-based producer-consumer service running on AWS Lambda using the traditional Serverless Framework and [Lift](https://github.com/getlift/lift) plugin. It allows to accept messages, for which computation might be time or resource intensive, and offload their processing to an asynchronous background process for a faster and more resilient system.

 ## Anatomy of the template
 
-This template defines one function `producer` and one Lift construct - `jobs`. Producer function is triggered by `http` event type, accepts JSON payload and sends it to a corresponding SQS queue for further processing. To learn more about `http` event configuration options, please refer to [http event docs](https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/aws/events/apigateway/). Jobs construct is responsible for two things. It creates SQS queue along with corresponding "dead-letter queue" and defines `worker` function that is responsible for processing events from created SQS queue. For more details about `queue` construct type and Lift plugin in general, please refer to [docs](https://github.com/getlift/lift/blob/master/docs/queue.md). For more details about SQS processing with AWS Lambda, please refer to official [AWS documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/with-sqs.html).
