Silly question but how does this compare to SQS? More cost friendly I assume?

SQS vs "Postgres Queue", I think mainly:

- Closed/lock-in vs. Open/lock-free

- Rigid data access pattern vs. Very flexible SQL access

-Managed by AWS vs. Managed by you/your team (although you could use one of those managed Postgres services to reduce ops burden)

- Integrates well with other AWS services (e.g. Lambda, SNS, DynamoDB, etc) vs. No integrations with AWS ecossystem out of the box
