Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Python

The Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Python extends Amazon SQS to handle message payloads larger than the standard 256 KB limit, supporting sizes up to 2 GB. It achieves this by transparently storing the message payload in an Amazon S3 bucket and sending a reference to the S3 object in the SQS message. The library is currently at version 1.0.1 and maintains a release cadence tied to feature development and AWS SDK updates.
