Is the NServiceBus RabbitMQ storage automatically the subscription storage? - rabbitmq

Since RabbitMQ saves the subscriptions in the exchange routing, do you actually need to configure StorageType.Subscriptions' persistence?

Only if you want to use a different type of persistence...

Spring Cloud Stream RabbitMQ - Partitioning using header instead of routing key

I was going through the documentation but couldn't find anything related to this, so I'm here just to confirm with you.
We'd like to partition Rabbit queues using Spring Cloud Stream, but would like to do so without using routing keys for it. Is there a way to do it by using headers or properties in the messages?
RabbitMQ plugins allow this but, does spring cloud stream allow it in some way?
Thanks and regards.
You can manually provision whatever exchange type you want and set the declareExchange property to false.

Redis PUB/SUB: how to ignore own messages?

The idea is:
I have N WCF services which connected and subscribed to the same Redis message channel. These services use this channel to exchange messages to sync some caches and other data.
How each service can ignore its own messages? I.e. how to publish to all but me?
It looks like Redis PUB/SUB doesn't support such filtration. So, the solution is to use set of individual channels for every publisher and common channel for subscription synchronization between them. Here is an golang example of no-echo chat application.

RabbitMQ mirroring queues and exchanges

Is it possible to use federations or shovels to mirror the creation of exchanges and queues on one server to another ?
All the examples I've seen of using shovels and federations use exchanges and queues that already exist on the servers. What I want to do is create an exchange on server A and have a federation or shovel re-create it on Server B then start to send messages to it.
If this cannot be done with a federation or shovel is there anyway of achieving this without using clustering, the connection between the two servers is not consistent so clustering isn't possible.
I'm running RabbitMQ on windows.
You can use the federation plug-in.
It supports the exchange exchange and the queue federation, in order to mirror the queues and exchanges you can configure a policies ( using the management console or command line),for example with this parameters:
Name: my_policy
Pattern: ^mirr\. <---- mirror exchanges and queues with prefix “mirr.”
Definition: federation-upstream-set:all
you can apply the configuration for exchanges and queues, as:
The pattern policy supports regular expression
In this way each new or old exchange or queue that starts with the prefix “mirr.” will be mirrored to the other broker.
I think this could solve your problem.
Unfortunately in this way it is not possible to do this, because the connection is a point-to-point connection. You have to link a exchange with a remote exchange and in your topology this cant be created automatically.
I had also this problem in the past. And how i resolved the problem was over a business logic side. If there was a need for a new Exchange/Queue "on the fly", my data input gateway recognized this and created on the local and on the remote exchange the new exchange and queues with the connection, before the message was sent to RabbitMQ.

NSB - Send/Reply same application

Is it possible to configure NSB in a Send/Reply config such that the same application is responsible for both sending the message and processing/replying to the same message? The goal would be to leverage the durability of messaging provided by NSB.
Yes, you can either use the bus.SendLocal short cut or configure the messages with the address of your local input queue. SendLocal is probably what you want

What is the best alternative way of monitoring apache Active MQ other than using JMX API

I have tried and tested the JMX API and it is pretty simple to use and provides a vast number of statistics required for monitoring ActiveMQ.
But the problem is, i dont want to monitor my ActiveMQ remotely and also i dont want to use another API.To be more precise, i want to use the JMS API itself to get statistics related to various destinations and the broker itself.
Advisory messages seem to be an alternative but they provide limited Amount of Administrative Messages to monitor.
Any input is highly appreciated...
There is no built-in support for this. But you can implement a JMS topic which publishes the monitoring data every few seconds. Make the connection non-persistent so that it doesn't pile up when there are no listeners or when they loose connection.
Now you can write a client that connects to this topic and it will receive updates.
AMQ-2379 resulted in a broker plugin for grabbing statistics from destinations by sending a simple JMS message. Check out the docs that show how to use it here:
http://activemq.apache.org/statisticsplugin.html
The statistics plugin is available in the 5.3 release.
You can checkout this http://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2379, it will be avaiable in upcoming 5.3.0 release
There's a blog post queued up to go on http://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2379 - will post it in a couple of days or so
