That's wonderful, thank you. But, what about across servers? Wouldn't I need to
rely on TCP? If so, can they also do this?
Thanks,

Guess again :)
Thank you, Justin. I had heard rumours, but its almost unfathomable :-D

Yeah sure. It'll work just fine with tcp endpoints.

Thank you, Whitney, you've made my day. I've been contemplating this part of my
cloud over and over for days and was loath to do something complex when
currently it's very simple and sleek. I can see ZMQ is a perfect fit :-D

Is it possible for a sub socket to bind to multiple pub sockets?
Yes. You can call bind and/or connect on a socket as many times at you like.
If so, where is there an example of this?
Here's an example from the guide where a pub socket is bound to multiple
endpoints:
Thank you for your reply, Witney, but I need it the other way. I need a sub
socket to be connected to multiple pub endpoints... This is because every
instance will have a single publisher, telling all who is interested about
events, but that same service will want to list to an arbitrary number
Bind vs connect is independent of socket type. You can bind a SUB socket and
connect many PUB sockets to it.
So, you could have each service bind a PUB socket and a SUB socket, and then
connect each to all other services' SUB sockets and PUB sockets respectively.

I'm guessing the subs cannot connect to many?
Guess again :) Here's a python example:
# start sub.py
import zmq
c = zmq.Context()
s = c.socket(zmq.SUB)
s.setsockopt(zmq.SUBSCRIBE, '')
s.connect('ipc://ep1')
s.connect('ipc://ep2')
while True:
m = s.recv()
print m
print ''
# end
