I'm experimenting with rabbitmq to replace our current message queuing implementation. Currently our test system is comprised of a REST web service, a 3-node rabbitmq cluster, and a windows service. The REST service acts as a front-end for our clients to send data to which then gets published from the REST service to our rabbitmq cluster. The windows service has multiple subscriber threads that consume the messages from the cluster and do things like insert data from the message into a relational database, send an email containing the message contents, etc.�<div>
<br></div><div>Right now I am trying to figure out if I am limiting throughput to the cluster because each instance of the REST service and each instance of the windows service only has one connection to the cluster BUT multiple channels. We support about two dozen message types right now and I've created a channel for each one. Some channels have a lot of messages flowing through while some have little to none depending on the day. Is there a recommended approach to number of connections vs channels? We are starting to load test the system and I am trying to understand what could be tweaked to improve performance/throughput.
