An add-on service for Messenger API that adds inter-broker capability, making Messenger API resilient against outage. Runs as sidecar container with it's own DB, and periodically syncs Messenger databases between different instances to provide fallback capability for clients.
|
||||
|
||||
__Messenger Broker is in alpha. It is discouraged to rely on it in production environment.__
|

|

# Why
|
||||
|
||||
Running single instance of message broker mean clients are left with no communication if the instance goes down for any reason at all. Adding secondary, or even tertiary instance of messenger to provide fallback option for clients is desirable. Broker runs in the background as a synchronizer of Messenger API databases. Messenger itself is completely unaware of this, while Broker keeps track of what entities injected into Messenger's database are foreign.
