Indirect output communication

[mcopik]

Our current communication between FK functions and clients relies on clients being able to listen on a TCP socket. Unfortunately, this requires clients to have a public IP and not behind a NAT.

An alternative solution would be to use a cloud queue. Clients perform long polling to read messages from writer, watch and heartbeat function.

• Allocate new SQS queue.
• Change distributor and watch functions to send notifications using the queue.
• Change heartbeat function to use the queue to send messages and receive a reply.
• Allocate dynamically SQS queues for new clients.
• Modify client libraries to read messages intended only for this client instead of reading TCP socket.

@mcopik I think we have clientQueue . Do we need to create a new SQS queue ?
