[rabbitmq-discuss] message routing by consistent hash?

[Jon Brisbin]

I'm chewing on a scalability problem and trying to use consistent hashing to solve it. Would it be possible to implement message routing based on a consistent hash of the routing key in a way similar to how Riak and riak_core uses it to distribute data/work?

It would basically be an extension of the random direct exchange I just put on my GitHub but instead of using a uniform random function, it would use a consistent hash.

Thanks!
