Connection reset while sending data from AWS Lambda to SQS queue

I'm using AWS SDK for Java in which I'm sending data from AWS Lambda to SQS.

We are getting exception:

Code:

 List<SendMessageBatchRequestEntry> sqsList= new LinkedList<SendMessageBatchRequestEntry>();
    int batchId = 0; //To send a unique batchId for each msg in a batch
    for (Metadata metadata: metadataList) {
        String jsonString = new Gson().toJson(metadata);
        sqsList.add(new SendMessageBatchRequestEntry(batchId + "", jsonString));
        batchId++;
    }
    amazonSqs.sendMessageBatch(new SendMessageBatchRequest(queueUrl, sqsList));

Background what we are trying to do:

We have a main Lambda function which create and initialize an SQS queue, and contain detail for every record that should be processed. Now SQS queue need to set up for creating batches of X number of messages from the queue and automatically invoke another SQS Lambda function for each of the batches.

The maximum number of messages per batch is 10. You cannot fill the SQS queue with 20k at once and send that request. Try to break it into 10's.

We can send it in the batch size of 10. Working code:

List<SendMessageBatchRequestEntry> sqsList= new LinkedList<SendMessageBatchRequestEntry>();
    int batchId = 1; //To send a unique batchId for each msg in a batch
    for (Metadata metadata: metadataList) {
        String jsonString = new Gson().toJson(metadata);
        if (sqsList.size() == 10) {
            amazonSqs.sendMessageBatch(new SendMessageBatchRequest(queueUrl, sqsList));
            sqsList.clear();
        } 
        sqsList.add(new SendMessageBatchRequestEntry(batchId + "", jsonString)); 
        batchId++;
    }
    if(sqsList.size()>0) {
        amazonSqs.sendMessageBatch(new SendMessageBatchRequest(queueUrl, sqsList));
    }

Seems like your code is fine, and as far as I remember (I have seen this error myself several times), this happens from time to time when using SDK due to how SDK reuses HTTP connections. This error only tells you that your the Lambda, well, reseted the HTTP connection, but SDK has build in functionality to retry failed requests so you should be fine if you don't see this error on every single request.
