Consume multiple JMS messages in a single commit with Spring Integration - jms

What is the most elegant way to consume multiple JMS messages in a single transaction in Spring Integration without storing the message again in an Aggregator backed by a persistent Message Store?
In an previous project based on IBM Integration Bus this feature (IBM calls it Commit Count) was very helpful to increase message throughput.

See the Spring Batch BatchMessageListenerContainer.

Deferred consumption of message queue

Sorry this might sound naive to JMS gurus, but still.
I have a requirement where a Spring based application is not able to connect synchronously to a SAP back-end (via their web-service interface) because the response from SAP is way too slow. We are thinking of a solution where the updates from GUI would be saved by the Spring middle-ware in a local database, simultaneously sending a message to a JMS queue. We want that after (say) every few hours (or may be nightly) a batch job runs to consume the message from the JMS queue, and based on the message contents, queries on the local database and sends the result to the SAP web-service.
Is this approach correct? Would I need a batch to trigger the JMS message consumption (because I don't want to consume the message immediately but in a deferred manner and at a pre-decided time)? Is there any way in Spring to implement this gracefully (like Camel)? Appreciate your help.
Spring Batch has a JmsItemReader that can be used in a batch program; an empty queue signals the end of the batch. Spring Cloud Task is built on top of batch and can be used for cloud deployments.

Spring Integration - ActiveMQ to Kafka

I am currently trying to write an adapter which will consume messages from ActiveMQ and publish it to Kafka.
I am thinking of using spring integration to integrate these two messaging systems.
My problem is that my application will not maintain registry of the Models using which many applications will publish the records to activeMQ. I want to receive these javax jms message and want to perform some transformation like adding jmscorrelationId into kafka message.
ALso, another requirement is to send acknowledgement to active mq only when kafka send/publish is successfull.
Can ack be send back to activemq using spring integration?
Will spring integration be a good option?
Kindly note my tech architect is not in favor of using Camel/Mule. Also, he does not want to use Kafka Connect as i was planning to use Kafka connect source.
Please suggest.
The Spring Integration Kafka extension project has a sync mode for publishing, which will block the thread until Kafka confirms delivery (or throw an exception on a failure).
The JMS inbound gateway can be used to return a reply to a JMS queue.
You can add transformers (or whatever) in the flow to modify the message.

JMS with Spring Integration or Spring Batch

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.

Does Spring XD re-process the same message when one of it's container goes down while processing the message?

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.

Multiple (Tomcat + ActiveMQ + Mysql) Transaction Management

We have Multiple Tomcat providing web services for our internal product.
Tomcat, Active MQ servers are different
Web services call sequence
Tomcat Receive request
Start DB Transaction (Spring Transaction)
Execute some business logic
Generate certain events & push in queue (Active MQ)
Start JMS Transaction
Push in queue
Commit JMS
Execute other business logic
(other business logic may generate another event for JMS)
Commit DB.
So what i want is to start Global Transaction which should take care of committing respective transaction in sequence.
JMS should only get commit if DB is getting commit.
Is it possible with JTA??????
Your suggestions are welcome.
Yes. See these posts:
