Using the Amazon SQS message group ID

MessageGroupId is an attribute used only in Amazon SQS FIFO (First-In-First-Out) queues to organize messages into distinct groups. Messages within the same message group are always processed one at a time, in strict order, ensuring that no two messages from the same group are processed simultaneously. Standard queues do not use MessageGroupId and do not provide ordering guarantees. If strict ordering is required, use a FIFO queue instead.
