RabbitMQ is an open-source message-broker software that enables communication between different applications or services. It implements the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) which is a standard protocol for messaging middleware. RabbitMQ is designed to handle large volumes of message traffic and to support multiple messaging patterns such as point-to-point, publish/subscribe, and request/reply. In a RabbitMQ system, messages are produced by a sender application and sent to a message queue. Consumers subscribe to the queue to receive messages and process them accordingly. RabbitMQ provides reliable message delivery, scalability, and fault tolerance through features such as message acknowledgement, durable queues, and clustering.
A RabbitMQ consumer is a client application or process that subscribes to a queue and receives messages in a push mode, using RabbitMQ client libraries and various subscription options.
All component configurations are classified broadly into the following sections:
Meta Information
Follow the steps given in the demonstration to configure the Rabbit MQ Consumer component.
Host: Enter the host for RabbitMQ.
Port: Enter the port.
Username: Enter the username for RabbitMQ.
Password: Enter the password to authenticate with RabbitMQ consumer.
Queue: Provide queue for RabbitMQ consumer. A queue is a buffer that holds messages produced by publishers until they are consumed by subscribers. Queues are the basic building blocks of a RabbitMQ messaging system and are used to store messages that are waiting to be processed.
