Using Spring boot #RabbitListener, we are able to process the AMQP messages.
Whenever a message sent to queue its immediately publish to destination exchange.
Using #RabbitListener we are able to process the message immediately.
But we need to process the message only between specific timings example 1AM to 6AM.
How to achieve that ?
First of all you can take a look into Delayed Exchange feature of RabbitMQ: https://docs.spring.io/spring-amqp/docs/current/reference/html/#delayed-message-exchange
So, this way on the producer side you should determine how long the message should be delayed before it is routed to the main exchange for the actual consuming afterwards.
Another way is to take a look into Spring Integration and its Delayer component: https://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/docs/5.2.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT/reference/html/messaging-endpoints.html#delayer
This way you will consume messages from the RabbitMQ, but will delay them in the target application logic.
And another way I see like start()/stop() the listener container for consumption and after according your timing requirements. This way the message is going to stay in the RabbitMQ until you start the listener container: https://docs.spring.io/spring-amqp/docs/current/reference/html/#containerAttributes

So using JMS and ActiveMQ, I can be sure that my message sent from my Spring Boot application using JmsTemplate will reach it's destination application even if that destination application is down at the time I send the message to ActiveMQ. As when the destination application starts up, it grabs the message from the queue. Great!
However.
What happens if my Spring Boot application tries to send a JMS message to a queue on the ActiveMQ server, but the ActiveMQ server is down at that point or the network is down and I get a connection refused exception?
What is the recommended way to make sure my application keeps trying to re-sends the message to ActiveMQ until it is successful? Is this something I have to develop into my application myself? Are there any nifty Spring tools or annotations which do this for me? Any advice on best practice or how I should be handling this scenario?
You can try Spring-Retry. Has lots of fine grain controls for it:
http://www.baeldung.com/spring-retry
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-retry
If it is critical that you don't lose this message, you will want to save it to some alternative persistent store (e.g. filesystem, local mq server) along with whatever retry code you come up with. But for those occasional network glitches or a very temporary mq shutdown/restart, Spring-Retry alone should do the trick.
Couple of approaches I can think of
1. You can set up another ActiveMq as fallback. In your code you don't have to do anything, just change your broker url from
activemq.broker.url=tcp://amq01.blah.blah.com:61616
to
activemq.broker.url=failover:(tcp://amq01.blah.blah.com:61616,tcp://amq02.blah.blah.com:61616)?randomize=false
The rest is automatically taken care of. i.e. when one of them is down, the messages are sent to other.
Another approach is to send to a internal queue (like seda, direct) when activemq is down and read from there.
Adding failover to the url is one appropriate way.
And another reasonable way is to making sure activemq always online , as activemq has the master-slave mode(http://activemq.apache.org/masterslave.html) to get high availability.
Our project is to integrate two applications, using the REST API of each and using JMS (to provide asynchronous nature). Application-1 writes the message on the queue. The next step is to read the message from the queue, process it, and send it to application2.
I have two questions:
Should we use one more queue for storing messages after processing and before sending them to application2?
Should we use spring batch or spring integration to read/process the data?
Or you don't show the whole premise, or you really try to overhead your app. If there is just need to read messages from the queue, there is just enough to use Spring JMS directly... From other side with the Spring Integration and its Adapters power you can just process messes from the <int-jms:message-driven-channel-adapter> to the <int-http:outbound-channel-adapter>.
Don't see reason to store message somewhere else in the reading and sending process. Just because with some exception here you just rollback your message to the JMS queue back.
Application Data Flow:
JSon Messages--> Active MQ --> Spring XD-- Business Login(Transform JSon to Java Object)--> Save Data to Target DB--> DB.
Question:
Sprin-Xd is running in cluster mode, configured with Radis.
Spring XD picks up the message from the Active message queue(AMQ). So message is no longer in AMQ. Now while one of the containers where this message is being processed with some business logic suddenly goes down. In this scenarios-
Will Spring-XD framework automatically re-process that particular message ? what's mechanism behind that?
Thanks,
Abhi
Not with a Redis transport; Redis has no infrastructure to support such a requirement ("transactional" reads). You would need to use a rabbit or kafka transport.
EDIT:
See Application Configuration (scroll down to RabbitMQ) and Message Bus Configuration.
Specifically, the default ackMode is AUTO which means messages are acknowledged on success.
There are multiple servers that are listening to activemq. The chain is configured to make the http [outbound gateway] call. Suppose one of the server picks up the message and in-between if the http call fails for some reason. The message should be put back to the queue, so that another server can pick up the message and process. Can this be achieved using Spring Integration. I read lot on Transaction, however unable to find workable way.
Yes, simply set acknowledge="transacted" on the <int-jms:message-driven-channel-adapter/> and, as long as you use only direct channels (no <queue/> on the channel or task-executor on the channel's dispatcher) then any failure will cause the message to roll back.
I'm new to ActiveMQ. I'm using it (and Apache Camel) for batch processing that ends up communicating with web services.
My question is how does ActiveMQ control how asynchronous it really is? In other words, if it can process 20 messages at the same time but the bottleneck is the web services on the other end, how can I control that? Can I slow ActiveMQ down?
Thanks!
if you're using apache camel 2.4+, you can use the throttler with camel to control message flow to endpoints - you can change the limit dynamically as of camel 2.8 - hope it helps.
The Camel throttler would be a good solution. It does however keep the messages in memory in the Camel application at the time. However it allows to react precisely.
Another alternative is the throttling in-flight route policy you can configure on the Camel ActiveMQ JMS consumer. That policy can be configured with a upper/lower water mark settings. Then the policy will automatic suspend/resume the AMQ consumer accordingly. You can extend this logic and use your custom metrics instead.
You can read about this policy here: http://camel.apache.org/routepolicy
This approach would then not keep any messages in memory, as it will control on the AMQ consumer side to suspend/resume it to "throttle" the flow.
You could also set a pre-fetch limit, preventing AMQ from dispatching messages on a specific transport to its consumers based on the amount of message_delivered responses it gets back from the client. Here is a reference
