Request/reply (RPC) over RabbitMQ muliggjør synkron-stil request-response kommunikasjon ved hjelp av messaging — en klient sender en request og mottar en respons via en reply-kø, ved hjelp av en correlation ID for å matche responsene til requestene. Det er et nyttig mønster for service-til-service-kall.
Hvordan RPC fungerer i RabbitMQ
RPC pattern over messaging:
1. CLIENT sends a REQUEST message, including:
→ a REPLY-TO queue (where the response should go)
→ a CORRELATION ID (unique ID to match the response to this request)
2. SERVER (consumer) processes the request and sends a RESPONSE to the reply-to queue,
including the same CORRELATION ID
3. CLIENT receives the response from its reply queue, matches it by CORRELATION ID →
pairs the response with the original request
→ request-response over async messaging
