Hi all, I am going to wrap up the discussion regarding delayed delivery use cases.
For arbitrary delayed delivery, there are a few +1s to doing PIP-26 in functions. I am assuming that we will go down this path, unless there are other proposals. However there is a use case Lovelle pointed out about "Fixed Delayed Message". More specifically it is https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/3155 (The caption in #3155 is a bit misleading). IMO it is a "delayed subscription", basically all messages in the subscription is delayed to dispatch in a given time interval. The consensus of this feature is not yet achieved. Basically, there will be two approaches for this: a) DONT treat "fixed delayed message" as a different case. Just use the same approach as in PIP-26. b) treat "fixed delayed message" as a different case, e.g. we can better call it "delayed subscription" or whatever can distinguish it from general arbitrary delayed delivery. Use the approach proposed/discussed in #3155. I would like the community to discuss this and also come to an agreement. So Lovelle can move forward with the approach agreed by the community.
