Message Brokers

A message broker is a software system that acts as an intermediary between different applications or services, enabling them to communicate efficiently. It receives messages from one system, processes or queues them, and then forwards them to the intended recipient. Think of it like a mail supervisor that sorts, organizes, and delivers messages so various applications can exchange information smoothly without needing to connect directly. This setup improves scalability, reliability, and flexibility in complex digital environments by decoupling communication and ensuring messages are delivered accurately.
