How does that compare to RabbitMQ's disk backed store?

• jbooth 13y ago
  I'm not familiar at all with RabbitMQ, so can't really comment, but I'm pretty sure they give guarantees like a producer can wait until a given message is consumed. This means there's no fire-and-forget, even though the message is logged to disk at one point, you need to do all that per message book keeping.

    It is more accurate to say that RabbitMQ supports both fire-and-forget and producer-waits. The exact behavior is specified by a combination of how you configure exchanges and queues, and per-message settings, and how you write your client code. For example, your application can decide that some of the messages it injects into a queue are to be durable and others not. It is quite flexible (though the docs are lacking when it comes to specific advice for various use cases).
