Queue Storage Type and Document Type
Administrators need to select the storage mechanism that clients will use to queue documents. This selection is made at the client group level, and is dictated by factors such as:
*Trade-offs between safety and performance: the safer the storage mechanism, the slower the performance
*The importance of maintaining client data across sessions
You assign a queue storage type when you create a client group, and the value cannot be changed. You can set the storage type to volatile or guaranteed.
*Volatile. Documents are stored only in local memory and are lost if the Broker Host loses power or the Broker Server is restarted.
*Guaranteed. Documents are persisted to disk and can be recovered in case of a power failure or restart.
