hi,

i have some messages which must be processed in order, i.e. by a single 
consumer, but i also would like the reliability that comes from having 
multiple consumers in a cluster

activemq has a feature called "exclusive consumer" whereby the broker 
delivers messages to only a single consumer of all the consumers 
subscribed to a queue, only switching consumers when the currently 
chosen one fails

http://activemq.apache.org/exclusive-consumer.html

can i achieve the same with rabbitmq/amqp ?

thanks

mccraig
