Abstract: Techniques for performing shared queue management utilizing shuffle sharding are described. For an event, one shared queue can be selected by first identifying a shard of a pool of queues, selecting two or more queues from the shard, and selecting the one queue that has a minimum queue load from those queues in the selected two or more queues. The selection significantly reduces or eliminates negative impacts upon a user or user function from activity of other users that utilize the shared queues.

Abstract: A message processing technology is provided that includes subscription of stateless compute functions to messaging queues of the message queueing service. The message queueing service may be configured to provide highly scalable hosted messaging queues for reliable delivery of messages. When messages are received in a messaging queue, then a stateless compute function, of a serverless compute service, that is subscribed to the messaging queue may be invoked to process the message. The serverless compute service manages compute resource for execution of the stateless compute function in response to dynamic message traffic.

Abstract: A polling resource management system and methodology for facilitating the management of polling resources for polling message queues. A user interacts with customer applications within a web services system. A polling manager within the web services system utilizes polling resources, such as polling threads, polling assignments, and polling workers to access and implement messages in the message queues. A polling resource manager automatically scales the polling assignments, polling threads, and invoke threads to better utilize the polling resources and to reduce latency experienced by the user when interacting with the customer applications.
