Does anyone know what the maximum amount of queues I can create is? I've look around on AWS and can't seem to find the answer. I might have almost 50 different queues at the end of this project and want to make sure I am not running out of runway...
There is no limit for the number of queues:

Q: How many message queues can I create?
You can create any number of message queues.
There is also no limit for the number of messages in a queue:
Q: How large can Amazon SQS message queues be?
A single Amazon SQS message queue can contain an unlimited number of messages. However, there is a quota of 120,000 for the number of inflight messages for a standard queue and 20,000 for a FIFO queue. Messages are inflight after they have been received from the queue by a consuming component, but have not yet been deleted from the queue.
