Message Queues
Like pub/sub, message queues decouple the publisher or sender of data from the consumer of data. The Universal Messaging realm server manages the fan out of messages to consumers. Unlike pub/sub with channels, however, only one consumer can read a message from a queue. If more than one consumer is subscribed to a queue then the messages are distributed in a round-robin fashion.
