Features

Multi protocol

Supports several messaging protocols directly or through plugins.

  • AMQP 0-9-1, 0-9 and 0-8, and extensions

Cross Platform (RabbitMQ is for everyone)

  • PHP
  • Node.js
  • Java
  • Ruby
  • Objective-C & Swift
  • .NET
  • Go
  • Perl
  • Haskell

Management UI

  • Plugin that can be enabled for RabbitMQ.
  • Can monitor and handle your RabbitMQ server from a web browser.
  • Static HTML page that makes background queries to the HTTP API for RabbitMQ.
  • High unacked messages ~ Low consumers
  • Management interface can be helpful for debugging you application.

Management UI

High Queues availability

Mirrored Queues:

 

  • Works by allowing queue to be mirrored on other nodes within a RabbitMQ cluster. So if one node of the cluster fails, the queue can automatically be switched to one of the mirrors and continue to operate even without the unavailability of the service.
  • Improves the availability of the service.

              Clustering:

  • RabbitMQ is a logical grouping of Erlang nodes, and in this case node is nothing its basically a computer or an instance. 
  • Collection of nodes is called clustering.

Features

  • Multi protocol
  • Scalability
  • Easy to install
  • Cross Platform
  • Easy to use Management UI
  • High Queues availability

Exchange

  • Message routing agent
  • Can be durable, temporary or Auto deleted
    • Durable - Stays up even if server restarts
    • Temporary - Gets deleted when server is shutdown
    • AD - Exchange is deleted when all queues have finished using it
  • Several type of exchange types, which works on a particular algorithm
  • Binding - This is a link between queue and exchange
  • Routing key -  Message attribute

Exchange Types

P

Exchange

binding

  • Direct Exchange
  • Fanout Exchange
  • Topic Exchange

C

Direct Exchange

  • The binding key must match the routing key exactly - no wildcard support.

(Image source: https://lostechies.com)

Fanout Exchange

  • The routing and binding keys are ignored - all published messages go to all bound queues.

Topic Exchange

  • Same as Direct, but wildcards are allowed in the binding key. '#' matches zero or more dot-delimited words and '*' matches exactly one such word.

AMQP (Overview)

  • Advanced Message Queueing Protocol
  • Open source
  • Binary Wire Protocol Standard
  • Support in various languages 
  • Interoperable
  • Reliable and Secure
  • Implementations: Apache Qpid, RabbitMQ, ActiveMQ (>5.8)

RabbitMQ with Drupal/PHP

  • Installation and documentation is well explained on the RabbitMQ website (http://rabbitmq.com)
  • Module available for Drupal 7 & Drupal 8 (https://www.drupal.org/project/rabbitmq)
  • Actively maintained PHP AMQP library (https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib)
