What is a message queue?
A message queue makes connections reliable, even during busy periods or outages. Below you can read how a message queue works.
A message queue is an intermediate station in which messages wait neatly in order until they can be processed. It makes connections reliable: during busy periods or an outage, nothing is lost, everything is still handled.
Messages neatly in line
A message queue is an intermediate station in which messages wait in order until they can be processed. The sending system does not have to wait until the other is ready: it puts the message in the queue and moves on. The receiving system takes the messages out one by one.
As a result, systems stay decoupled and resistant to peaks. If a large flow of orders comes in, they are handled calmly without anything falling over.
Reliability during outages
If a system goes down briefly, messages stay safely in the queue and are still processed as soon as it responds again. Together with automatic retries, this ensures nothing is lost, a principle we apply by default in our connections.
