Mastering RethinkDB

By: Shaikh

Overview of this book

RethinkDB has a lot of cool things to be excited about: ReQL (its readable,highly-functional syntax), cluster management, primitives for 21st century applications, and change-feeds. This book starts with a brief overview of the RethinkDB architecture and data modeling, and coverage of the advanced ReQL queries to work with JSON documents. Then, you will quickly jump to implementing these concepts in real-world scenarios, by building real-time applications on polling, data synchronization, share market, and the geospatial domain using RethinkDB and Node.js. You will also see how to tweak RethinkDB's capabilities to ensure faster data processing by exploring the sharding and replication techniques in depth. Then, we will take you through the more advanced administration tasks as well as show you the various deployment techniques using PaaS, Docker, and Compose. By the time you have finished reading this book, you would have taken your knowledge of RethinkDB to the next level, and will be able to use the concepts in RethinkDB to develop efficient, real-time applications with ease.

Integrating RethinkDB with RabbitMQ


RabbitMQ is a message broker. If you think of how a broker of any kind works, then it would be easy for you to understand the working of RabbitMQ too. Say you are consulting a property broker, so you become the person who is initiating a request to purchase property. Let's name you Producer-a guy who is producing a request.

Broker is a guy who has a list of properties that have been listed by other people. Let's name one of those people Consumer of your producer's request. Eventually, Producer is going to buy the property of Consumer.

Broker has lists of properties; let's name the listing Property queue. So, Producer wants some property; it adds the request to Broker. Broker looks over his listing and tries to match the correct consumer.

That's exactly how RabbitMQ works. Except that there is no commission charge and there is no property!

RabbitMQ exchanges messages between a producer and a consumer using the message queue. There can be multiple producers...
