If we stick with only synchronous requests to that agent and leave asynchronous stuff to the pulp Task engine, temporary (non-durable) queues will be a good approach to pruning dead queues.This is probably a stupid question, but if we're only doing synchronous requests
To be clear, I was suggesting synchronous request/response. Asynchronous request (no response) is a different matter because it does not introduce complexity.
and they only go to one agent (or rather, each agent has its
own queue), why are we using a message bus in the first place?I always viewed it as the benefits of message buses were that they offered a pub/sub model and were really conducive to asynchronous operations.
Fair question.We will be using (I think) qpid for more then request/response. I expect we'll want the agent to broadcast (pub/sub) heartbeat messages. Also, on the server-side, we expect to broadcast (pub/sub) events intended for system integration. For example, integration between pulp and candlepin.
Also, message brokers provide queueing, reliable delivery and content based messaging routing (just to name a few).
Maybe asking some other questions will shed some light on whether we need asynchronous request/response (callback) for agent operations.
When asking a large collection of agents to perform an operation: Is this one async task or a task per consumer (agent)? Do we need to provide status of this operation for each agent?
