Agree; you can’t just say “give me a queue”. You need to tune in-flight messages, processing times, FIFO or not, dead letters — the list goes on. These details are not 1:1 for different clouds, and they can’t be ignored for anything beyond a PoC. If I need to mess with all that in Wing…I could just use the AWS SDK. I can also trust that the SDK has the complete, latest feature set.
- shaiber 4y ago[Wing team member here] We feel that the cloud has matured to a point where the basic services have enough in common with each other to allow us to successfully abstract their _functional_ parts. We do not abstract away the non-functional ones. You are welcome to check out the implementation of the standard library on GitHub and let us know what you feel is missing in the different abstractions.
