In almost every scenario I’ve worked in there have always been multiple consumers. If the queues backed up we’d add more consumers to drain the pipe. I’ve never had a single queue situation either.

This has typically involved a network of brokers configuration. > On Apr 21, 2015, at 11:41 AM, Clebert Suconic <[email protected]> > wrote: > > First I wanted to get some thoughts on what scalability means... > > People will say: be able to add more nodes to multiply throughput... > > But that means multiple producers, single consumer.. .or it's actually > multiple producers and multiple consumers? > > Single queue, or multiple queues? > > > > Then I wanted to be able to take that and write a test to measure what we > find. > > > It would be nice to get some thoughts from users placing things into > production. > > > > > On Mon, Apr 20, 2015 at 5:53 PM, Bruce Snyder <[email protected]> wrote: >> Thanks for posting your thoughts, Clebert.
