Combining high-availability technologies together
RabbitMQ has three different ways to distribute messages among brokers:
- Cluster queue mirroring
- Federation
- Shovel
In this recipe we will show you how to combine cluster, high-availability queue mirroring, and shovel to transfer messages across the WAN from an ha-cluster
to a single RabbitMQ node, as shown in the following diagram:
The aim is to implement a shovel capable of draining messages from a cluster using its high-availability properties.
