Visibility timeout too short
A consumer takes 2 minutes to process a message but the SQS visibility timeout is 30 seconds. What is the effect?
Options
- 1The message is processed faster because SQS re-sends it as soon as the visibility timeout has expired again over time
- 2The message becomes visible again mid-processing and is redelivered to another consumer, causing duplicate work and potential double side-effects
- 3SQS rejects the message permanently and returns a hard error to the receiving consumer application every time
- 4The queue pauses entirely until the consumer explicitly deletes the in-flight message once again, halting all processing
