Message Queuing

Message queuing is a way for different computer programs or systems to communicate reliably. It involves sending messages through a dedicated channel (queue) so that the sender doesn’t need an immediate response, allowing each to operate independently. Imagine it like sending a letter via a postal service: the sender places the message in the queue, and the receiver retrieves it when ready. This setup helps manage workloads efficiently, ensures messages aren’t lost if the receiver is busy, and allows complex tasks to be broken down into smaller, manageable parts, improving overall system flexibility and reliability.
