What is AMQP?
- Open source international standard
- Asynchronous messaging between applications
- The message vehicle & transport mechanism
- Latest protocol: 1.0
- Mule-supported protocol: 0-9-1

The AMQP Model
Source: http://www.amqp.org/specification/0-9-1/amqp-org-download
Components:
- Exchange
- Message queue
- Binding
@dessskris #CodenameMAXINE
How does it work?
Source: http://www.amqp.org/specification/0-9-1/amqp-org-download
- The publisher application sends a message & routing key to Exchange
- The message is routed according to Bindings to its corresponding Queue
- The message is ready to be consumed
- The consumer application can consume and ack or reject this message, or requeue it
@dessskris #CodenameMAXINE
Why use messaging queues?
- Handle all asynchronous requests reliably
- Added resilience if the processing system is down
- Route and distribute messages according to business rules
- Allow loosely coupled systems to communicate easily

How do we do this with MuleSoft?
Check out this live demo!
See repo on https://github.com/dessskris/amqp-mulesoft/

AMQP error handling on MuleSoft
- Save attributes.ackId if using manual acknowledgement
- Reject the message in error handler
- Where appropriate, post status updates to another queue
- When the message completes processing in another API,
they can post status updates to this queue
@dessskris #CodenameMAXINE
Conclusion
- AMQP allows applications to send messages to each other
- Publish to an Exchange, routing with Bindings, consume from the Queue
- Reliable asynchronous messaging with added resilience
- Achievable on MuleSoft using AMQP 0-9-1
