Exam AWS-SysOps topic 1 question 280 discussion

In Amazon SQS (Simple Queue Service), if a queue is not actively used for 30 consecutive days, it can be automatically deleted by AWS without prior notification. This is an important aspect to consider when managing your resources, as AWS may clean up unused queues to optimize resource usage. So, in the scenario described, if the organization is not performing any operations on the modularqueue for 30 days, AWS SQS might delete the queue automatically without notifying the user.

Correct Answer: B https://forums.aws.amazon.com/ann.jspa?annID=2532 "The SQS documentation states that we reserve the right to delete queues that have been inactive for more than 30 days. So far we have never exercised that right and SQS still stores the metadata for all queues that have not been explicitly deleted. To cleanup those old queues, many of which have not been accessed in years, we will on July 14, 2014 start a purge of all queues that have not been accessed for more than 30 days."

B. AWS SQS can delete queue after 30 days without notification
