I would suggest you use a message queue. There are several high quality open
source implementations available, e.g:
http://activemq.apache.org/
http://qpid.apache.org/
I'm not currently aware of any MQ distributions that are set up specifically to
work with SEC, but it doesn't sound like that's what you need anyway - you can
presumably replace the logic that you have which currently generates tickets
directly with logic to enqueue a "create me a ticket" message, and then add a
message consumer which implements your "throttling" business logic as it
dequeues the messages and feeds your ticketing system.
Cheers,

Subject: [Simple-evcorr-users] Throttling event actions?
I have a ticketing process that is in need of queueing or pacing of
actions. Because SEC is fairly efficient, it can process logs,
deduplicate and generate tickets rather rapidly. It is fast enough that
the ticket gateway can get swamped and tip over. As I see it, there are
two things that need to happen to create a robust system: create a
bigger receiver load handling capacity, implement receiver queueing, and
implement transmitter queueing. The latter is what I am trying to
address. Does anyone have a generalized solution that would allow to
use an event store as a queue, with actions that would be dependent upon
queue depth? How can SEC be configured to dampen bursts, but not
necessarily throw away significant events?
Please advise,
Tim Peiffer
