=> Queue workers for serverless Laravel applications

sqs @ lambda :$  about

Because monoliths weren't considered when AWS designed the SQS-Lambda integration, it lacks some crucial features. In a monolith, the same codebase processes various jobs from various queues. Controling prioritization & concurrency is crucial.

Workerless fixes this by allowing you to configure queue prioritization in two ways:

=> Sorted Lists [high,medium]: Processes jobs from `medium` only if `high` is empty.
=> Weighted Lists [payments:2,mail:1]: Processes jobs from `payments` ~66% of the time, and from `mail` ~33%.

sqs @ lambda :$  how

Workerless runs as a standalone binary with zero dependencies. It monitors your queues & invokes the Vapor function. You can run it on ECS Fargate (serverless) and forget about it.

sqs @ lambda :$  roadmap

Workerless is currently WIP. The roadmap includes:
=> Monitoring duration & throughput per job & queue.
=> Auto balancing on sudden bursts.
=> Backing off when a queue is empty to reduce cost.
=> Throttling on a per-queue basis.
=> Handle expired jobs without invoking the lambda to reduce costs.
=> Long polling when the queue is empty.
=> Per-queue "retry_after".
=> What else? Let me know.
