Save over 70% on your sqs-triggered lambda cost
summary
Migrates SQS-triggered, interrupt-tolerant Lambdas to Fargate Spot and reports an actual 84% cost savings on a pilot conversion. Uses spot instances for queue consumers, accepts preemption, and handles duplicates with DLQs and retries. Platform team builds reusable plumbing: a queue-polling service, shared CLI and CloudWatch dashboard for deployment and monitoring, plus IaC modules to remove migration friction so dozens of Lambdas can be converted reliably.
