4. What Is Messaging?
Sending messages between isolated entities
(usually apps, but can be also threads, as in
Erlang).
Usually through a messaging broker.
Asynchronous, suitable for distributed systems.
Push, not pull.

6. How Can You
Benefit?
Better design of apps.
Scalability.
Robustness.

7. #1 Better Design,
Easier Maintainance
Decoupling -> small, isolated apps.
Greatly reduces complexity.
Isolation -> it's easy to rewrite just the
critical parts into Java or C.
Simple integration with legacy systems, no
need to rewrite everything.
It's dead-easy to inspect what's going through.

9. #2 Scalability
Improve responsiveness by doing
CPU-intensive tasks later in an
asynchronous manner.
Scale only the parts which requires it.

12. #3 Robustness
Backend deployment with no
downtime (see the schema).
Message persistency.
Acknowledgements (I've done it,
send me the next task).

13. What if the service would go offline?

15. Pub/Sub
Publishers do not send messages to
specific subscribers. Published
messages are characterised into
classes, without knowledge of the
subscribers. Subscribers express
interest in some classes, and only
receive messages they want.

17. Other Use-Cases
From a browser utilising websockets
(games development etc).
Remote procedure call.

18. #1 AMQP in BBC
Realtime Tweets Processing.
As middlewares (download, process,
store to S3).
1000 tweets/sec = about 90 million a
day.

22. RabbitMQ
AMQP natively, STOMP, XMPP by plugins.
Most widely used OSS AMQP broker.
A lot of plugins available, writing new
ones is quite easy (Erlang).

23. ZeroMQ
Brokerless, provides socket-like API.
Supports advanced routing.
Leads to decentralised architecture.
