Overview of this book

RabbitMQ is an open source message queuing software that acts as a message broker using the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP). This book will help you to get to grips with RabbitMQ to build your own applications with a message queue architecture. You’ll learn from the experts from CloudAMQP as they share what they've learned while managing the largest fleet of RabbitMQ clusters in the world. Following the case study of Complete Car, you’ll discover how you can use RabbitMQ to provide exceptional customer service and user experience, and see how a message queue architecture makes it easy to upgrade the app and add features as the company grows. From implementing simple synchronous operations through to advanced message routing and tracking, you’ll explore how RabbitMQ streamlines scalable operations for fast distribution. This book will help you understand the advantages of message queue architecture, including application scalability, resource efficiency, and user reliability. Finally, you’ll learn best practices for working with RabbitMQ and be able to use this book as a reference guide for your future app development projects. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to use message queuing software to streamline the development of your distributed and scalable applications.

Summary

This chapter talked about prefetch and manual acknowledgment from the consumer. The fanout exchange was introduced, to be able to broadcast a single message to all active queues. Up next, CC has new plans for its RabbitMQ system – they want to be able to clean up old messages in a smooth way and tweak the message delivery. They also want to be able to send messages to individual drivers from the back office service.
