Re: [Simple-evcorr-users] Throttling event actions?

[Peter W. <pwo...@qu...>]

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
