Comment on Ask HN: How have you used Amazon SQS successfully?

Comments

I use it to separate and scale parts of my application.

More specifically I am building a continuous integration application in Ruby and using SQS as build and result queues from which EC2 instances pick up tasks, builds them then add into the result queue. I don't need ordering and don't mind a few seconds of latency.

PS: If you are interested in beta testing it please drop me a line.
