com.softwareag.connectivity.control
Event AckRequired

Request from a connectivity chain to the application, asking it to reliably acknowledge all events that came from the chain immediately prior to this AckRequired.

This event will be sent to the default channel of that chain. That is, your EPL will not normally need to subscribe to any extra channels to receive these requests, if it is already receiving regular events from that chain.

A reliable-messaging-aware transport will issue these requests with as large an interval as it can get away with, based on the constraints of the external messaging system. So if your application has a "commit" mechanism that has a large fixed cost (for example, a filesystem sync, a database commit or an expensive computation) then doing a commit and acknowledgment on and only on AckRequired requests makes sense.

Do not rely on these requests being high frequency or timely; the functional behaviour of your application should not depend on them, especially if latency is important. Only the operations required for safely preserving the effect of incoming events should be tied to AckRequired requests.
