[rabbitmq-discuss] Regd: Publish Many Scenarios

[preeti sp]

Hi Emile,

I am clear with below approach. I have gone through RabbitMQ site.

My Main concern is:
(A) We need to handle multiple publishers and multiple consumers for same topic. And, If we create one queue each for every consumer, given the size of consumer base we have, our queue size might really hit high.

Is there any limit you would suggest to number of Queues that RabbitMQ could handle efficiently?

Our application is more of broadcast/multicast type. Meaning, If some one person does something, the same needs to be broadcasted to other folks on that thread! So, If we maintain one Queue each for each consumer, it is essentially duplicating the same Information 'n' number of times! So, I was wondering If there is any way to maintain only one Queue copy and publish it to how many required instead of duplicating so many queue copies in the memory?

Thanks,
Preeti

Yes, it is possible for multiple consumers to subscribe to the same
queue, but each message will only be delivered to one consumer. If you
want each consumer to receive each message then you will need to declare
a queue for each consumer and bind the queues to an exchange. Compare
the second and third tutorials for an illustration:

Yes, but bear in mind that publishers publish to an exchange, not to a
queue directly.

No, see the answer to (1) above.
