When publishing to partitioned topics, you must specify a *routing mode*. The
routing mode determines which partition---that is, which internal topic---each
message should be published to.
-There are three routing modes available by default:
+There are three {@inject:
javadoc:MessageRoutingMode:/client/org/apache/pulsar/client/api/MessageRoutingMode}
available by default:
-Mode | Description | Ordering guarantee
-:----|:------------|:------------------
-Key hash | If a key property has been specified on the message, the
partitioned producer will hash the key and assign it to a particular partition.
| Per-key-bucket ordering
-Single default partition | If no key is provided, each producer's message will
be routed to a dedicated partition, initially random selected | Per-producer
ordering
-Round robin distribution | If no key is provided, all messages will be routed
to different partitions in round-robin fashion to achieve maximum throughput. |

+Mode | Description
+:--------|:------------
+RoundRobinPartition | Publish messages across all partitions in round-robin
fashion to achieve maximum throughput. This is the default mode.
+SinglePartition | If no key is provided, the producer will chose one
single partition and publish all the messages into that partition. While if a
key is specified on the message, the partitioned producer will hash the key and
assign message to a particular partition.
+CustomPartition | Use custom message router implementation that will be
called to determine the partition for a particular message. User can create a
custom routing mode by using the [Java client](client-libraries-java.md) and
implementing the {@inject:
javadoc:MessageRouter:/client/org/apache/pulsar/client/api/MessageRouter}
interface.
-In addition to these default modes, you can also create a custom routing mode
if you're using the [Java client](client-libraries-java.md) by implementing the
{@inject:
javadoc:MessageRouter:/client/org/apache/pulsar/client/api/MessageRouter}
interface.
+### Ordering guarantee
+
+The ordering of messages is related to MessageRoutingMode above. Usually, user
would want an ordering of Per-key-bucket guarantee.
+
+Ordering guarantee | Mode
+:-----------------|:------------
+Per-key-bucket | Use SinglePartition mode, and Key is provided by each message.
+Per-producer | Use SinglePartition mode, and no Key is provided for each
message.
Review comment:
I don't think we have used the term "bucket" elsewhere. I'd rather stick
with "partition" instead.
