You mean SQS FIFO? SQS classic cannot guarantee exactly-once delivery or ingestion, either due to failure at the client or server. SQS FIFO, however; can but requires both the client and the server to work in-tandem to ensure exactly-once processing.

And your queue throughput also gets destroyed by flipping that FIFO option, it’s a mess.

How’s amazon’a kafka offering going?

I'm not a fan of it, personally. The interface is lacking, configurability after launch is minimal at best, and the observability is EXTREMELY poor because you can't get per-topic metrics without paying extra.
